In the presence of NaOH and cat. Pd(PPh3)4, the trihalodiene 4 underwent highly regioselective Suzuki-couplings with unsaturated boronic acids: At 70 °C, the iodoolefin moiety coupled first (with boronic acid 14) and the E-bromoolefin moiety thereafter (with boronic acid 16). The resulting Z-bromolefin 17 was transformed into the stereopure α-alkenyl-γ-alkylidenebutenolide 2 in three steps. The strategy developed here should be applicable to the synthesis of peridinin (1) which plays a central role in photosynthesis by marine algae.
