A Biaryl-Cyclohexenone Photoelectrocyclization/Dearomatization Sequence to Substituted Terpenes.

ABSTRACT: Described here is the development of sequential cross-coupling, photoelectrocyclizations, and reductive dearomatizations of biaryl cyclohexenones as a means of synthesizing terpene skeletons. This methodology promises to provide insight that will enable us and others to use this approach to generate a variety of biologically active small molecules, including members of the abietane and morphinan skeletons.
