ol was synthesized by aldol cyclization to a five-membered ring, epoxidation, samarium diiodide-induced ring opening, and the RCM reaction to the seven-membered carbocycle. This method has succeeded in constructing the desired stereochemistry in the synthesis of pseudolaric acid A.
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.
