The paraherquamides and marcfortines represent a novel class of anthelmintics. The sole structural difference between paraherquamide A and marcfortine A occurs in ring G. We synthesized paraherquamide B from marcfortine A in six steps. Paraherquamide A was then prepared from paraherquamide B in seven steps. This represents the first formal synthesis of paraherquamide A.
