, p. 1120 - 1124 (2009)
A simple carbohydrate-based convergent approach towards the total synthesis of herbarumin-I, a 10-membered lactone is described. The key features of the synthetic strategy include Grignard reaction and ring-closing metathesis reaction for the formation of the 10-membered ring and E-olefinic moiety. d-Mannitol has been used as a chiral pool material for the construction of the key fragment.

The synthesis of both enantiomers of endo-7-ethyl-5-methyl-6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.l]octana (endo-brevicomin, 12 and 12a) starting froni D-ri-bose is described. Key interinediate is the open chain derivative 7, a chiral building unit easily available from ca
