A stereoselective route to the C13-C28 subunit of (-)-laulimalide is described. l-Tartaric acid is the source of the hydroxy groups at C19 and C20. An α-chlorosulfide is employed as the key intermediate for the creation of the C17-C18 bond and the C16-C17 double bond was introduced using the Mislow-Braverman rearrangement and Hutchin's dexoxygenation with concomitant double bond transposition reaction. The C15 and C23 stereogenic centers were created using catalytic asymmetric reactions. The trisubstituted and trans-disubstituted alkenes were created stereoselectively by taking advantage of ring-closing metathesis and the Julia-Kocienski olefination reaction, respectively.

The C15-C28 fragment of the paclitaxel-like antimicrotubule agent laulimalide has been synthesized in 12 linear steps from known epoxide 5, with an overall yield of 16%. The methyldihydropyran ring of the side chain was efficiently prepared using ring-closing olefin metathesis chemistry. The 19,20-diol stereochemistry originates in starting material 7 and the side chain was appended using a Kocienski-modified Julia coupling.
