Abstract

A target-oriented highly enantioselective multifunctional organocatalytic approach has been developed to construct the bicycle-[3.3. 1] nona-2, 6-dien-9-one core of (−)-huperzine A for the first time, with up to 95% ee in the gram-scale procedure. The newly established methodology is also eligible to synthesize a variety of bicyclo [3.3. 1] nona-2, 6-dien-9-ones in high enantiopurities, and thus is useful for the future development of novel huperzine A ...
