Syntheses of the ring B fragments (+)-pederol dibenzoate (2) and (±)-benzoylpedamide (3) of the insect toxin pederin (1) are described. An intramolecular directed aldol condensation was used to construct the tetrahydropyran ring in (+)-pederol dibenzoate

The conjugate addition of phenylselenomethyl-lithium to the α,β-unsaturated lactone (4) was a key step in a short synthesis of (+/-)-benzoylselenopederic acid (2); union of (2) and (+/-)-benzoylpedamide (3) by a modification of known procedures gave (+/-)-pederin (1).
