The first total synthesis of recently isolated diacetylene alcohols oploxyne A, oploxyne B, and their C-10 epimers was accomplished. The structure of natural oploxyne B has been revised. The key steps involved are base-induced double elimination of a carbohydrate-derived β-alkoxy chloride to generate the chiral acetylenic alcohol and Cadiot-Chodkiewicz cross-coupling reaction. The target compounds displayed potent cytotoxicity against neuroblastoma and prostate cancer cell lines.
