Abstract

Abstract Starting from citraconic anhydride, a three-step approach to fimbrolide congener is reported by taking the advantage of a regioselective Grignard reaction with an anhydride, followed by a dehydrative cyclization and double bromination-dehydrobromination sequence. Starting from N-(4-tolyl) maleimide, an eight-step synthesis of two natural fimbrolides is reported with good yields via the synthesis of requisite butylmaleic ...
