Abstract

A simple and efficient stereoselective synthesis of synargentolide B was achieved by using ethyl (S)-2-hydroxypropanoate as a readily available starting material. The key steps involved in the synthesis are Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons olefination, Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation, zinc allylation, and Hoveyda–Grubbs IInd generation catalyzed ring closing metathesis.
