Abstract

The total synthesis of herbarumin III is described, proving the versatility of the Prins cyclization in the synthesis of natural products. The approach is convergent and highly stereoselective. Ring-closing metathesis and alkene-rearrangement reactions are utilized as key steps in the synthesis of the macrolactone.

Key words

herbarumins - Prins cyclization - alkene rearrangement - ring-closing metathesis
