(±)-epi-Conocarpan 1 was synthesized via the key intermediate 5-bromo-cis-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran 6 which was synthesized by a ruthenium(II) porphyrin-catalyzed intramolecular C-H insertion reaction using aryl tosylhydrazone salt 5 as the carbene source, starting from the commercially available 5-bromo-2-hydroxyacetophenone.
Concise asymmetric synthesis of (+)-conocarpan and obtusafuran

, p. 189 - 192 (2013/02/26)
The asymmetric synthesis of three natural products: (+)-conocarpan, both (+)- and (-)- obtusafuran is disclosed. The highlights of the synthesis are the enantioselective hydrogenation of prochiral ketones via dynamic kinetic resolution to afford chiral alcohols. Intramolecular ring closure via either Sr reaction or metal-catalyzed C-O bond formation led to the construction of the trans-dihydrobenzofuran core. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York.

(Chemical Equation Presented) Catalytic asymmetric synthesis of neolignan natural products (-)-epi-conocarpan and (+)-conocarpan has been achieved by exploiting an enantio- and diastereoselective intramolecular C-H insertion reaction to construct a cis-2-
