  • Synthesis of Viriditins A and B by Selective Coupling of Trans-1,2-Dichloroethylene
    A synthesis of (?)-viriditin A and (?)-viriditin B has been completed sequentially using a Suzuki coupling and a Heck reaction of trans-1,2-dichloroethylene. The selectivity for monocoupling of trans-1,2-dichloroethylene is attributed to a lower-energy transition state for the oxidative addition step.
