Abstract

An efficient asymmetric synthesis of (+)-tetrahydropseudodistomin is described. The important synthetic features include a Maruoka asymmetric allylation and a Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation as key steps for the generation of chirality at C-2, -4, and -5 of the trisubstituted piperidine ring.
