Highly efficient synthesis of the tricyclic core of Taxol by cascade metathesis [PDF]
An efficient enantioselective synthesis of the ABC tricyclic core of the anticancer drug Taxol is reported. The key step of this synthesis is a cascade metathesis reaction, which leads in one operation to the required tricycle if appropriate fine-tuning ...

Biologically active Phytophthora mating hormone prepared by catalytic asymmetric total synthesis [PDF]
A Phytophthora mating hormone with an array of 1,5-stereogenic centers has been synthesized by using our recently developed methodology of catalytic enantioselective conjugate addition of Grignard reagents. We applied this methodology in a diastereo- and
