, p. 275 - 278 (1996)
A concise synthesis of the tricyclic furanochroman unit 2 found in the unusual PAF antagonist phomactin A 1 is described. The synthesis is based on elaboration of the novel dihydrofuran enol ether 3 as key intermediate via the iodopyran 6 or the dihydrofu
Synthetic studies towards the phomactins. Concise syntheses of the tricyclic furanochroman and the oxygenated bicyclo[9.3.1]pentadecane ring systems in phomactin A.

A concise synthesis of the tricyclic furanochroman unit 3 found in the PAF antagonist phomactin A (1) isolated from the marine fungus Phoma sp., is described. In complementary studies, a variety of synthetic routes towards the bicyclo[9.3.1]pentadecane ring system 4 in phomactin A were explored. These studies culminated in a synthesis of the substituted ring system 79 containing all the carbon atoms and all the necessary oxygen centres for elaboration to phomactin A itself.
