Intramolecular biaryl coupling reaction of benzyl benzoate and phenyl benzoate derivatives, and its application to the formal synthesis of (−)-steganone
Construction of the biaryl moiety of stegane and related compounds through an intramolecular biaryl coupling reaction is described. Undesired products were obtained by the intramolecular coupling reaction of benzyl benzoates (8, 13, and 14) because of their
