Abstract

A total synthesis of both pairs of enantiomers of natural lignans, diaeudesmin and epieudesmin, was described. The synthesis involved enantioselective allylborylation of veratraldehyde with 1,6-bis(diisopinocampheylboryl)hexa-2,4-dienes, ozonolysis, and triethylsilane reduction in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate.
