Abstract: | A short and efficient enantioselective synthesis of (−)-cytoxazone and its stereoisomer (+)-epi-cytoxazone, novel cytokine modulators, has been described with good yield and enantioselectivity. Ti-catalyzed Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation of allyl alcohol and l-proline catalyzed three-component Mannich reaction constitute the key steps in introducing stereogenicity into the molecule. |
