Abstract

Starting from triethyl phosphonopropionate and 3-nitro-2-methylbenzoic acid, a formal synthesis of crinipellin B was achieved. The strategy draws on the use of a novel version of the arene-alkene meta-photocycloaddition reaction that proceeds with the generation of 4 rings and 4 quaternary stereocenters in one synthetic operation.
