Significance

(-)-Amphidinolide K shows cytotoxic activity against L1210 (IC50 = 1.65 µg/mL) and KB (IC50 = 2.9 µg/mL) cancer cell lines. A radical cyclization reaction of homopropargylic derivative A and an enyne cross-metathesis reaction of an alkynyl boronate D and an alkene E were the two premiere steps in the total synthesis.
