Abstract
(-)-Detoxinine, an unusual, highly-functionalized amino acid, is the c ore residue of many components that comprise the detoxin complex. The synthesis of(-)-detoxinine was accomplished in 10 steps and 13.4% over all yield from commercially available dichlorodiisopropylsilane. The k ey step is an asymmetric tandem inter [4 + 2]/intra [3 + 2] cycloaddit ion between silyoxynitroalkene 17 and chiral vinyl ether (-)-24, illus trating the application of a temporary silicon tether in the tandem ni troalkene cycloaddition process.
