The first total syntheses of the cytotoxic macrolides (+)-acutiphycin (1) and (+)-trans-20,21-didehydroacutiphycin (2) have been achieved. An acyclic stereocontrol strategy was employed to establish the configurations at C(5), C(10), and C(13) as well as the E geometry of the C(8,9)-trisubstituted olefin. Importantly, the natural source of 1 and 2, the blue-green alga Osillatoria acutissima, no longer produces these metabolites.

Single enanitiomers of 6-(2-hydrocarbyl-substituted ethenyl)-bearing, 4-hydroxy tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-ones, e.g., 6α-[2-(2-methyl-1-naphthyl)ethenyl]-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-4β-hydroxy-2H-pyran-2-one (4R,6S) are obtained by a multi-step process which includes
