Guided by a synthetic design aimed at late-stage diversification, we report the preparation of unusual shapeshifting anions and their subsequent application to the total synthesis of the polyketide natural product ocellatusone C. Site-selective core functionalization of a readily accessible bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane architecture sets the stage for shape-selective side chain installation via a nonfluxional π-allyl Pd-complex derived from a barbaralyl-type anion. Several interesting chemical findings, including substituent-dependent bridged bicycloisomerism and the isolation of a stabilized, 3° carbon-bound Pd-ketone enolate complex, are reported. |
