A synthesis of the title compound, the synthon for the constanolactones and other eicosanoids, has been developed from achiral starting compounds. The synthesis is based on the S-enantiodirected dihydroxylation of the double bond to introduce a chirality and on the use of conformational restriction of the triple bond (the latent Z-double bond) surroundings.
