Compound 3, representing the tetracyclic core structure of CP-225,917, was
prepared from bridgehead olefin 9, which was first converted into ketone 13
. Peterson olefination then gave 15, and this was elaborated into the anhyd
ride 19, from which crystalline 3 was reached by a sequence of deprotection
and oxidation steps. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
