A Formal Synthesis of Forskolin: An Electrocyclization Approach

A formal synthesis of forskolin (1) is reported.A key intermediate, lactone acetonide 2, was prepared by an efficient functional group transformation of lactol 16, involving the hydroxyl-directed epoxidation, PCC oxidation, and deoxygenation.
