Abstract

Abstract Image

The first total synthesis of dolabelide D (or of any of the closely related dolabelides) has been achieved with a longest linear sequence of 17 steps. Key features of the synthesis include an application of the catalytic asymmetric silane alcoholysis, the tandem silylformylation−crotylsilylation, and a Brook-like 1,4-carbon to oxygen silyl migration.
