Multigram Synthesis of Glyceollin I
ACS/Organic Process Research and Development, 2011, 15, 1149–1162
Scaled-up procedures and prepn. of glyceollin I (I) in multigram quantities are described. The synthesis features construction of a cis-fused ring system in high enantiomeric excess after Sharpless asym. dihydroxylation of a key intermediate that is initially produced by an intramol. Wittig reaction to afford the requisite alkene while simultaneously forming the first ring. The overall yield is 12% after 11 steps.

Total syntheses of (±)-vestitol and bolusanthin III using a wittig strategy
Synlett, 2011, 11, 1605-1607
An intramolecular Wittig olefination was utilized to produce the key isoflav-3-ene intermediate needed to prep. (±)-vestitol and bolusanthin III in ca. 30% and 20% resp. yields after eight steps.

Total Syntheses of Racemic and Natural Glycinol
ACS/ Journal of Natural Products, 2009, 72, 11, 2072-2075.
Total syntheses of racemic and (-)-glycinol (I) are described. A Wittig reaction produced the isoflav-3-ene from which a Sharpless dihydroxylation introduced either the racemic or enantiomeric 6a-hydroxy group. A 5.5% overall yield of racemic material was obtained after 12 steps. A method was devised for a one-pot switch of protecting groups masking a sensitive resorcinolic para-functionality, and conditions were optimized to prompt spontaneous closure of the pterocarpanolic dihydrofuran…

A 5.5% overall yield of racemic material was obtained after 12 steps. A method was devised for a one-pot switch of protecting groups masking a sensitive resorcinolic para-functionality, and conditions were optimized to prompt spontaneous closure of the pterocarpanolic dihydrofuran upon subsequent exposure of its ortho-functionality. These improvements eliminated two steps and increased the overall yield to 9.8% during prodn. of the natural enantiomer.
