Abstract
We
report herein a facile and efficient method of the construction
of the <i>cis</i>-1,2-oxazadecaline system, distinctive
of (pre)trichodermamides, aspergillazine A, gliovirin, and FA-2097.
The formation of the 1,2-oxazadecaline core was accomplished by a
1,2-addition of an α<i>C</i>-lithiated <i>O</i>-silyl ethyl pyruvate oxime to benzoquinone, which is followed by
an oxa-Michael ring-closure. The method was successfully applied to
the concise total synthesis of trichodermamide A (in gram quantities)
and trichodermamide B, as well as the first synthesis of trichodermamide
C
