Carotenoids and related polyenes. Part 8.1 Total synthesis of optically active mytiloxanthin applying the stereoselective rearrangement of tetrasubstituted epoxide

Abstract

Biomimetic synthesis of mytiloxanthin 1 was accomplished with stereoselective rearrangement of the tetrasubstituted epoxide 5 as a key reaction. This is the first total synthesis of optically active all-E mytiloxanthin 1.
