Abstract

The first total syntheses of 3-epi-litsenolide D2 and its enantiomer lincomolide A were achieved. The synthetic highlights of our approach include olefin cross metathesis and bromine addition to the generated double bond, followed by the regioselective HBr-elimination and intramolecular carbonylation using bis(triphenylphosphine)dicarbonylnickel. This investigation also revealed that the previously reported specific optical rotation of 3-epi-litsenolide D2 should be revised.
