Summary

Phorbol, the flagship member of the tigliane diterpene family, has

been known for over 80 years and has attracted attention from

many chemists and biologists owing to its intriguing chemical

structure and the medicinal potential of phorbol esters. Access to

useful quantities of phorbol and related analogues has relied on

isolation from natural sources and semisynthesis. Despite efforts

spanning 40 years, chemical synthesis has been unable to compete

with these strategies, owing to its complexity and unusual

placement of oxygen atoms. Purely synthetic enantiopure phorbol

has remained elusive, and biological synthesis has not led to even

the simplest members of this terpene family.

Recently, the chemical syntheses of eudesmanes, germacrenes,

taxanes and ingenanes have all benefited from a strategy inspired

by the logic of two-phase terpene biosynthesis in which powerful C–

C bond constructions and C–H bond oxidations go hand in hand.

Here we implement a two-phase terpene synthesis strategy to

achieve enantiospecific total synthesis of (+)-phorbol in only 19

steps from the abundant monoterpene (+)-3-carene. The purpose of

this synthesis route is not to displace isolation or semisynthesis as

a means of generating the natural product, but rather to enable

access to analogues containing unique placements of oxygen

atoms that are otherwise inaccessible.
