The first total synthesis of natural cytotoxic agent, sporiolide B, is described. d-Xylose was used as the chiral template to pre-control the absolute configuration during the synthesis. Yamaguchi esterification and ring closing metathesis greatly facilit

The first total synthesis of the natural cytotoxic agent sporiolide A has been accomplished from D-glucal in 16 steps with 6.1% overall yield. Carbohydrates were applied as the chiral templates to manipulate the absolute configuration during the synthesis
