# name
First enantioselective synthesis of isagarin, a natural product isolated from Pentas longiflora Oliv.

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
For the first time, an enantioselective synthesis of both 1R,4S-isagarin 1a and 1S,4R-isagarin 1b was achieved starting from 1,4-dimethoxy-2-vinylnaphtalene 2. The key steps involve a Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation and reaction with an acetonylating pyridinium ylid.
