The successful construction of complex natural products depends to a large extent on how efficiently key intermediates can be generated. Here we report our efforts towards the first total synthesis of tedanolide (1), employing Evans' aldol methodology in combination with a vinylogous Mukaiyama aldol reaction (VMAR) and Sharpless' asymmetric dihydroxylation. This protocol allows for rapid access to its numerous chiral centers.
