The first total synthesis of α-costal (1) in racemic form has been achieved in an unequivocal manner whereby the structure previously assigned to the natural aldehyde is confirmed.A salient feature of the synthesis is the use of S-tert-butyl cyanothiolacetate to facilitate the introduction of the labile acrolein unit.
