Abstract

Chemistry Chemistry, Organic Physical Sciences Science & Technology
A convergent approach to the total synthesis of (-)-invictolide, a component of the queen recognition pheromone of Solenopsis invicta, is described. Key steps involve the desymmetrization of a bicyclic olefin with Brown's chiral hydroboration, C-C bond formation, 1,3-syn reduction, and oxidative lactonization of a 1,3,5-triol with TEMPO/PhI(OAc)(2).
