Carpanone is a naturally occurring organic compound first isolated from the Carpano tree (Cinnamomum sp.), from which it derives its name. It is classified as a lignan.
Total synthesis
The first total synthesis of carpanone was published by O. L. Chapman et al. in 1971. The biomimetic synthesis comprises only two steps beginning with 2-allylsesamol; the key step is an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of two identical molecules, which are coupled using a palladium(II) chloride catalyst:
This reaction creates two new rings and forms five contiguous chiral centers.
