Enantio- and diastereocontrolled synthesis of (+)-juvabione employing organocatalytic desymmetrisation and photoinduced fragmentation

Abstract

(+)-Juvabione, a natural sesquiterpene exhibiting insect juvenile hormone activity, has been synthesized from σ-symmetric 4-(2-formylethyl)cyclohexanone by employing organocatalytic asymmetric aldolisation and Norrish I-type fragmentation as the key steps.
