- gave the protected sulfonamide 30. For the isomerization of the exo-double bond, an Alder-ene reaction with N-sulfinylbenzenesulfonamide and subsequent desulfurization was the way of choice. Finally, both remaining protecting groups were removed to furnish cyclopamine (6). In total, 6 was prepared in

Although a drop in oxidation potential for the alkene was observed when tethered to an aryl sulfonamide, as detailed by Moeller, rapid intramolecular cyclization would be the key [26][27][28].
