Abstract

Enantioselective synthesis of the cyclopentenedione moiety of madindolines was achieved. Stereoselective construction of a quaternary carbon was realized by alkylation of an enolate possessing chiral auxiliary. Cyclopentenedione was derived from a triketone precursor by intramolecular condensation. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
