Jg. Urones et al., CHEMISTRY OF ZAMORANIC ACID .10. HOMOCHIRAL HEMISYNTHESIS OF PERENIPORIN-A, Journal of the Chemical Society. Perkin transactions. I, (12), 1997, pp. 1815-1818
The synthetic versatility of 12-acetoxydrima-7,9(11)-diene 1 obtained
from 15-hydroxylabda-7,13-dien-17-oic acid (zamoranic acid), as a key
intermediate in the homochiral semisynthesis of highly functionalized
drimanes such as pereniporin A 3, an important antibiotic, through the
carbonate 2, is highlighted.
