The stereoselective synthesis of the unnatural enantiomer of a cyclic diarylheptanoid, diospongin A is described. The salient feature of this synthesis is the formation of a tetrahydropyran ring via the AgOTf-catalysed intramolecular oxa-Michael addition of a β-hydroxy ynone followed by hydrogenation
