Abstract

The enantioselective total synthesis of idesolide has been accomplished in 20% overall yield from a known allylic alcohol by a nine-step sequence involving the Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation as the source of chirality and an efficient NaHCO3-promoted dimerization of the monomeric form of idesolide as the key transformation.
