Recent Advances in the Synthesis of Eremophilane-Type Sesquiterpenoids.

Abstract

This review deals with the recent progress toward the total synthesis of eremophilane-type sesquiterpenoids. Bicyclic eremophilanes, tricyclic eremophilanes (furanoeremophilanes), other eremophilanes, and biogenetically patterned transformation of eudesman to eremophilane sesquiterpenes are described. The items have been collected from the papers published through early 1975 to late 1979.
