(+)-Goniodiol, a potent and selective cytotoxin, and (-)-6-epi-goniodiol, as well as their enantiomers, have been synthesized starting from cinnamyl alcohol. The key steps of the synthesis were Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation and cyclization of an acrylate derivative using ring-closing metathesis reaction. The cytotoxicity of both enantiomers of goniodiol and 6-epi-goniodiol against HL-60 cells was examined.

The cytotoxic natural product (+)-goniodiol (1) has been prepared in twelve steps from the enantiomerically pure cis-dihydrocatechol (2), which is readily obtained by microbial oxidation of naphthalene. Elaboration of compound (2) involves an initial oxid
