The synthesis of enantiomerically pure (+)-grandisol has been achieved from an enzymically generated chiral synthon. The synthesis is an efficient one, the yield of optically pure material being 12% up to the penultimate step and 3% overall.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
