Concise enantioselective synthesis of (–)-gloeosporone from (S)-O-benzylglycidol [(S)-benzyloxymethyloxirane]
Abstract
Concise enantioselective synthesis of (–)-gloeosporone, a germination self-inhibitor isolated from Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, has been established using (S)-O-benzylglycidol as a chiral template.
