Abstract
Synthetic routes to geosmin and its enantiomer are well established, but the enantioselective synthesis of stereoisomers of geosmin is unknown. Here a stereoselective synthesis of all stereoisomers of geosmin is reported, yielding all compounds in high enantiomeric purity. Furthermore, the stereoselective synthesis of a geosmin derivative isolated from a mangrove associated streptomycete was performed, establishing the absolute configuration of the natural product. Finally, a new side product of the geosmin synthase from Streptomyces ambofaciens was isolated and its structure was elucidated by NMR spectroscopy. The absolute configuration of this new compound was determined through a stereoselective synthesis.
