A library of novel chiral biphenol-based diphosphinite (BOP) ligands was designed and created. These BOP ligands were applied to a Pd-catalyzed intermolecular allylic etherification reaction, which provided a key intermediate for the formal total synthesis of (-)-galanthamine with 97% ee in 97% yield.

An effective sequence: Palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation, Heck cyclization, and diastereoselective allylic oxidation were used in the total synthesis of (-)-galanthamine (3) in 14.8 % overall yield (from 1 and 2, Troc = 2,2,2-trichloroethoxycarbonyl) and with 96 % ee. This improved procedure provides the shortest and most efficient nonbiomimetic synthesis of the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.
