Transforming terpene feedstock into polyketide architecture

Abstract

The Cu-catalyzed synthesis of skipped 1,4-dienes from allylic acetates and vinyl-Grignard reagents is key to bidirectional modifications of acyclic terpene acetates. As a result, trisubstituted double bond containing subunits can be readily transferred into complex polyketides from inexpensive bulk terpenes.
