Stereoselective synthesis of O,O-dimethylkorupensamine A via palladium(0)-mediated cross-coupling of a planar chiral (arene)Cr(CO)₃ complex with naphthylboronic acid

Abstract

O,O-Dimethylkorupensamine A was stereoselectively synthesized by using the palladium(0)-mediated cross-coupling of the enantiomerically pure tricarbonylchromium complex of 3,5-dimethoxy-2-bromobenzene having a functional group at C-1 position with naphthylboronic acid as a key step.
