The first total synthesis of (-)-macrocarpal C (3) is described. The synthesis features a highly stereoselective coupling reaction of silyldienol ether 6 with biomimetic benzyl cation species (R)- and (S)-B, which were generated from novel hexasubstituted benzene chromium tricarbonyl complexes (R)- and (S)-17. At the final step of the total synthesis, we developed the tris-O-demethylation of macrocarpal C trimethyl ether 34 under basic conditions using lithium p-thiocresolate. Moreover, spectroscopic evidence shows that the synthetic (-)-3 is identical to natural macrocarpal G (4).

The first stereoselective total synthesis of macrocarpal C is achieved via a coupling reaction of a silyl dienol ether with a novel hexasubstituted benzene chromium tricarbonyl complex as an optically active benzyl cation equivalent, thereby clarifying the identity of macrocarpal C and G.
