Zr‐Catalyzed Kinetic Resolution of Allylic Ethers and Mo‐Catalyzed Chromene Formation in Synthesis. Enantioselective Total Synthesis of the Antihypertensive Agent (S,R,R,R)‐Nebivolol.
TL;DR: The first enantioselective total synthesis of the antihypertensive agent (S,R, R, R)-nebivolol (3) is described in this article, where the synthesis includes the efficient (EBTHI)Zr-catalyzed kinetic resolutions of cycloheptenyl styrenyl ethers 8 and 16, which are subsequently treated with 4 mol % Mo(CHCMe2Ph)(N(2,6-(i-Pr)2C6H3))(OCMe(CF3)2)2
