supporting information; experimental part, p. 13928 - 13929 (2009/12/25)
(Chemical Equation Presented) The first enantioselective synthesis of lupeol has been developed by applying two carefully crafted cation-π cyclization stages to generate the pentacyclic structure with complete stereocontrol. The synthesis (Scheme 1) is no
