Abstract
An efficient stereoselective total synthesis of the bioactive 14-membered natural macrocyclic bislactone 4-ketoclonostachydiol is described. The strategy involves a Jacobsen's hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR), epoxide opening, MacMillan α-hydroxylation, Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination, a Grignard reaction, and Hoveyda-Grubbs-II-catalyzed ring-closing metathesis (RCM) as key steps. © 2013 Verlag Helvetica Chimica Acta AG, Zürich.
