Аннотация

A flexible method for synthesis of laurencione, a marine natural product, and its benzyl and tert-butyl-methylsilyl-protected precursors was developed utilizing 3-hydroxypropionic acid ethyl ester as a starting material. The synthetic route consists of Kulinkovich cyclopropanation of a hydroxyl-protected ester, followed by oxidation of the resulting cyclopropanol to the appropriate oxiranyl ketone and its MgBr2·OEt2-catalyzed rearrangement to 1,2‑diketone.
