Sherburn's Total Synthesis of (-)-Arctigenin

The following synthesis begins at the top left and follows the respective arrows to the bottom left product, (-)-Arctigenin.

(I)The first step involves the formation of the boron enolate of the oxazolidinone [1], which then is reacted with the given aldehyde[2] to produce this first structure [3] in an approximate 92% yield.

(II)In the following two steps the chiral alcohol is protected by the creation of an -OTBS group [4]. After which the oxazolidinone is removed to form a terminal alcohol [5].

(III)Separately the aldehyde [6], is reduced to an alcohol [7], the alcohol is reacted with thiophosgene (CSCl2) to produce a very reactive C-Cl bond in place of the alcohol[8].

(IV)The terminal alcohol from structure [5] reacts with the C-Cl bond from structure [8] to produce a combined product [9]

(V) The conversion from [9] into [10] requires a radical carboxyarylation.

(VI) The TBDMS protecting groups are then removed [11].

(VII) The secondary alcohol is selectively removed to yield our target product (-)-Artigenin [12].
