Pectenotoxin-2 synthetic studies. 1. Alkoxide precoordination to [Rh(NBD)(DIPHOS-4)]BF(4) allows directed hydrogenation of a 2,3-dihydrofuran-3-ol without competing furan production

Org Lett. 2002 Mar 21;4(6):937-40. doi: 10.1021/ol010302l.

Abstract

[reaction: see text] The alkoxide-directed hydrogenation shown is reported as a key step in a concise synthesis of a fully functionalized precursor to the C29-C40 F/G sector of pectenotoxin-2.
