Synthesis of protected tetradehydro-(6,6′-S)-(14,14′-S)-(16,16′-R)-disorazole (3), a potential precursor to the natural product disorazole C1 (1), is described. Key features of this work include (a) an unprecedented sequential 1,5 O → O silyl rearrangement/Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction used to construct 18, (b) a highly convergent Sonogashira reaction between the dienyl iodide 7 and the alkyne 8 to assemble the dienyne monomeric fragment 5, and (c) the selective cyclization of 5 to give either the cyclic monomer 23 or the dimer 3.
