Abstract:
[formula: see text] An enantioselective synthesis of slagenins A-C (1a-c) is described in which their absolute stereochemistries were established. The key step in the synthesis involved the efficient condensation of 2-methoxy-dihydro-furan-3-one 9 and urea to construct the slagenin bicycle core.
