Abstract
A stereoselective synthesis of herbarumin-I in 22% overall yield, starting from l-ascorbic acid derived (S)-2,3-O-isopropylidine glyceraldehyde as a chiral template is reported. Stereoselective allylation and vinylation to control the required stereogenic centres and macrolactonisation followed by a ring-closing metathesis (RCM) are the key steps.
