Abstract

The stereoselective total synthesis of the title compound starting from D-glucose is described. The key steps in this synthesis are Ferrier rearrangement to construct the optically active cyclohexenone (C-ring), and Pd-catalyzed intramolecular Heck reaction to build the phenanthridone skeleton.
