Abstract

Herein, we report our progress toward the total synthesis of salvadione-A, a structurally complex triterpenoid isolated from Salvia bucharica. We document a model system of our tandem Claisen/Cope/Diels-Alder strategy. Additionally, we describe the evolution of our strategy toward the synthesis of three structurally related diterpenoids-coulterone, cyclocoulterone, and komaroviquinone--from a cyclopropanation/Friedel-Crafts route to an anionic homo-Fries/intramolecular Barbier cyclization pathway.
