Shootmenowicene
Thursday, August 23, 2012 8:22
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
After mentioning the natural product Shootmenowicene yesterday, I note that See Arr Oh is reporting that the total synthesis of this compound is now down to only 47 steps. I think the purity could be improved with a prep GC of one of the early intermediates (or perhaps a spinning band distillation), but that’s about all his synthesis is missing. . .
