Abstract
The relative configuration of the epoxide functionality in pinofuranoxin A (1), α-alkylidene-β-hydroxy-γ-methyl-γ-butyrolactone with trans-epoxy side chain isolated by Evidente et al. in 2021, was revised by DFT-based spectral reinvestigations and stereo-controlled synthesis. The present investigation demonstrates the difficulty of the configurational elucidation of the stereogenic centers on the conformationally flexible acyclic side-chains. Sharpless’s enantioselective epoxidations and dihydroxylations were quite effective in the reinvestigations of the configurations. As our syntheses made all diastereomers available, these would be quite effective in the next structure-biological activity relationship studies.
