Abstract

Stereoselective and parallel total syntheses of two possible diastereomers of (+)-sarcophytonolide C have been accomplished. Macrolactonization and transannular ring-closing metathesis (RCM) were the key transformations. Detailed comparisons of their 1H and 13C NMR data and specific rotation with those of the natural product allowed the absolute configuration of (+)-sarcophytonolide C to be determined.
