Synthetic strategies toward the decalin motif of maklamicin and related spirotetronates

Abstract

Herein we describe a scalable approach to the decalin moiety of maklamicin. Key to the synthesis is an intramolecular Diels-Alder (IMDA) reaction that proceeds via an endo-axial transition state to generate the desired stereochemistry. We explored the diastereoselectivity of the IMDA reaction as a function of both chiral catalysis and acyclic precursor stereochemistry.
