Résumé : (+)- and (-)-T-8, (+)- and (-)-9-epi-T-8, and their ethyl homologues were synthesized in six steps and 27% overall yield from chiral acetylenic sulfoxide (+)-7a or (+)-7b, via a cycloaddition reaction with 3,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-1-oxide, and chromatographic separation of the resulting diastereoisomeric Δ4-isoxazolines. Comparison of the spectral properties of the synthetic (+)-9-epi-T-8 with those of natural (+)-T-7 and (+)-T-3 led us to correct the structures of the latter two compounds. The absolute configuration of (+)-T-4 was determined to be 5R,9S,11R, and those of (+)-T-7 and (+)-T-3 to be 5R,9R,11R by comparison of their CD curves with those of the synthetic compounds.
