A total synthesis of (+)-negamycin through isoxazolidine allylation

The β-amino acid antibiotic (+)-negamycin has been synthesised in ten steps from epichlorohydrin via Sakurai allylation of an isoxazolidine intermediate. The key allylation reaction proceeded with complete trans-selectivity, which is attributed to electrostatic attraction between the chlorine atom a...

Description
Summary:The β-amino acid antibiotic (+)-negamycin has been synthesised in ten steps from epichlorohydrin via Sakurai allylation of an isoxazolidine intermediate. The key allylation reaction proceeded with complete trans-selectivity, which is attributed to electrostatic attraction between the chlorine atom and the iminium ion in the Sakurai intermediate.
