摘要
(Chemical Equation Presented) Chiral carbenes as major players: Two recently discovered chiral N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes play a crucial role in a concise enantioselective total synthesis of baconipyrone C (see scheme). An (NHC)Cu complex catalyzes a double asymmetric allylic alkylation (AAA), and an (NHC)Ru complex catalyzes an asymmetric ring-opening/cross- metathesis (AROM/CM) to establish the absolute configuration of the target. RCM = ring-closing metathesis. © 2007 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
