Roussis, V., and Hubert, T. D., 1992, Total synthesis of (+)-myomontanone and (+)-10,11-didehydromyomontanone: Liebigs Annalen Der Chemie, no. 5, p. 539-541. Abstract The sesquiterpenoid (+)-myomontanone (2), a toxic component of the australian plant myoporum montanum, has been synthesized through a short efficient sequence. An electrochemical oxyselenation-deselenation sequence allows oxidation of an intermediate olefin, in the presence of the furan ring, ultimatively providing the requisite enone of the natural product. This approach also allowed synthesis of (+)-10,11-didehydromyomontanone (13) and several other natural products of this family of furanosesquiterpenoids. Keywords
