title = "Stereocontrolled total synthesis and biological evaluation of (-)- and (+)-petrosin and its derivatives",
abstract = "Total synthesis of (-)- and (+)-petrosin was accomplished. Stereocontrolled construction of the quinolizidine ring was achieved through a diastereoselective Mannich reaction and an aza-Michael reaction. Head-to-tail dimerization was performed by assembly of the two monomers using Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling and subsequent ring-closing metathesis to construct the 16-membered ring. Biological evaluation of synthetic (-)- and (+)-petrosin and its derivatives indicated that the bispiperidine structure was necessary for the inhibition of syncytium formation.",
