Abstract

The first asymmetric total synthesis and structural confirmation of lobophopyranone A and B have been accomplished from commercially available starting materials. Reagent-controlled Keck–Maruoka allylation, Grignard reaction, chelation-controlled Sakurai allylation, and acid-mediated one-step TBS ether deprotection followed by cyclization are the crucial stages in this synthesis that create the 2,6-disubstituted dihydropyranone component.
