Description

The first total synthesis of (+)-lophirone H (1) and its pentamethylether derivative, featuring an oxonium-Prins cyclisation/benzylic cation trapping reaction, is described. This key step allows for the formation of all four stereocentres of the cis-fused 4H-furo[3,2-c]benzopyran core. Enantioselective preparation of the homoallylic alcohol Prins substrate is via an Evans-type asymmetric aldol/Heck reaction sequence. Full NMR data is available.
