A New Synthetic Route to Furofuranoid Lignans via Intramolecular Mukaiyama reaction

The sequence set out in Scheme 1 provides a short and expedient synthesis of a number of (+/-)-furofuranoid lignans, including styraxin 3 (antitumor), aptosimon 5, asarinin 6, pluviatilol 7, 'MEL' 4 (inhibitor of germination) and related compounds.
