The title compound, one of the constituents from Iryanthera megistophylla, has been synthesized in enantiopure forms. The stereogenic centers at C-2 and C-3 were constructed by using a chiral auxiliary induced asymmetric aldolization and the C-4 was derived from the corresponding optically active lactates. The carbon-carbon double bond in the side chain was derived from a pure cis vinyl iodide using a Suzuki coupling with an alkyl borane formed in situ from the corresponding terminal alkene. A previously unknown (partial) cis to trans transformation of an isolated C-C double bond in a long alkyl chain was observed during the deprotection of TBS group with CAN. Somewhat unexpectedly, the otherwise undetectable co-presence of the trans isomer of the remote double bond in a long alkyl chain was clearly revealed in H-1 and C-13 NMR in the presence of a lactone ring. The present work unambiguously shows that the absolute configuration of the natural compound is the antipode of the one originally reported. Some errors in the previous H-1 and C-13 NMR sinal assignments are also corrected. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
