Synthesis of rac-NorartemeseolThe synthesis of the terpenoid rac-norartemesol (1b) is accomplished using epoxide ring-opening reactions as key steps. Thus, addition of the thio-substituted allyl anion 2b to ethylene oxide followed by proton-induced cyclisation provides the tetrahydrofuran 4a. The oxirane 6, which is formed by simple functional group interconversion, is opened by the diethylaluminium salt 10 of a propargylsilane. After catalytic hydrogenation and tosylation, fluoride-induced cyclisation of the allylsilane 13 gives the target molecule 1b.
