Use of π-allyltricarbonyliron lactone complexes in the synthesis of taurospongin A: a potent inhibitor of DNA polymerase β and HIV reverse transcriptase

Abstract
The total synthesis of taurospongin A by two new approaches has been achieved where π-allyltricarbonyliron lactone complexes have been used to control highly stereoselective additions of the nucleophiles to a carbonyl unit located in the side chain of these complexes.
