The first synthesis of (10S,12R)-10-hydroxy-12-methyl-1-oxacyclododecane-2,5-dione and its C12 epimer is reported, thereby assigning the absolute stereochemistry of the natural product. The strategy utilizes a syn selective reduction, Yamaguchi esterification, and ring-closing metathesis as the key steps.
