Abstract
The stereoselective total synthesis of (â)-brevisamide, a novel marine cyclic ether alkaloid isolated from dinoflagellate karenia brevis is described. The key steps involved in this synthesis are the Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation and regioselective ring opening of chiral epoxide by Gilman's reagent. The tetrahydropyran core has been constructed by an intramolecular SN2 cyclisation.
