Gimme a cool 10-20 step synthesis
« on: September 08, 2011, 09:33:15 PM »
I'm looking for a fairly cool ten to twenty step synthesis, does anyone have any ideas?

I've had some ideas already:
-Taxol
-Longifolene
I've never seen a mole in a bag of animal crackers , but I've heard they're tasty. Can I have one please :)

You can browse this website (it is pretty recent and hard to navigate, but there are a lot of information, particularly on multi step total synthesis)

One more!
The Total Synthesis of Lysergic Acid
Edmund C. Kornfeld, E. J. Fornefeld, G. Bruce Kline, Marjorie J. Mann, Dwight E. Morrison, Reuben G. Jones, R. B. Woodward
J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1956, 78 (13), pp 3087–3114
(15 steps)
The discovery of the "special effects" of LSD can be mentioned. The exploits of RB Woodward are of course legendary.
