Abstract

A short and efficient enantioselective synthesis of (+)-L-733,060 in 92% ee via Shi epoxidation of a homoallylic carboxylate is described. Johnson-Claisen rearrangement was employed to obtain the required carbon backbone, whilst intramolecular reductive O-to-N-ring expansion of a delta-azidolactone was used in the construction of the piperidine moiety.
