Abstract
Divergent
synthesis is a powerful but yet underdeveloped method to address the usual
drawbacks of poor supply and confined diversity in the total synthesis of
natural products. Herein, we describe the rational design behind the selection
and the synthesis of a divergency scaffold for sesquiterpenoid lactones
synthesis, as a case study, which provides access to a rich collection of
carbocycles in different oxidation states within 8,12-sesquiterpenoids through
simple, scalable transformations.
