A stereocontrolled synthesis of the C1-C9 segment of the marine natural product peloruside A is described. The key steps involve Sharpless's catalytic asymmetric dihydroxylation reaction, a chelation-controlled reduction of chiral β-alkoxy ketones to elaborate the syn-1,3-diol functionality and a ring-closing olefin metathesis of a homoallylic alcohol-derived acrylate ester to form an α,β-unsaturated δ-lactone.
Synthesis of the FG fragment of the pectenotoxins

The synthesis of the FG subunit of the pectenotoxins is reported herein. The synthesis hinges on the preparation of an appropriately functionalized acyclic precursor using a Z-selective Wittig reaction. Further elaboration using two sequential cyclization
