[reaction: see text] We report in this Letter a synthesis of the densely oxygenated CDEF ring system (27) corresponding to that found in the recently discovered antibiotic lactonamycin. The key steps in the synthesis consist of an intramolecular Wessely oxidative lactonization of acid 18, followed by a hydroxyl-directed epoxidation of enol ether 21.

A study illustrating factors effecting the cyclization mode and regioselectivity of the alkyne-chromium carbene complex benzannulation cyclization reaction is detailed in development of a synthetic approach to the fredericamycin A ABCD(E) ring system.
