15 Conclusion Seven step synthesis of prostaglandin from 2,5- dimethoxytetraydrofuran Total yield % (58-61% per step) Synthesis is shorter than the state of the art. Key organocatalytic aldol dimerization reaction in high enantiomeric purity (99:1 er) 4 bond forming/breaking reactions during process (~65% per rxn) Can be performed on +100 g scale Bicyclic enal is a useful intermediate for exploring prostaglandin derivatives.
