Abstract
Conversion of the alcohol into the mesylate and reduction of the latter with LiAlH4 under mild conditions afforded ishwarane in 65% yield, thereby providing a further demonstration of the synthetic utility of such reductive, homoallylic cyclizations and a substantially improved synthesis of ishwarane.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
