The first total synthesis of koshikalide, a 14-membered macrolide that contains three olefins, was achieved. The skipped diene in the cyclic system was efficiently constructed by very mild Stille coupling at low temperature. The absolute stereochemistry was established by comparison of the specific optical rotations of natural and synthesized koshikalide.

(Chemical Equation Presented) Solandelactones A, B, E, and F were synthesized using Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi coupling of iododiene 13 with aldehydes 14 and 99 obtained by oxidation of alcohols 92 and 94. Key steps in the synthesis of 92 and 94 were (i) a Nagao asymmetric acetate aldol reaction of aldehyde 77 with thionothiazolidine 78 to set in place an alcohol that becomes the (75) lactone center of solandelactones, (ii) a Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation of 80 directed by this alcohol, and (iii) Petasis methylenation of cyclic carbonate 90 in tandem with a Claisen rearrangement that generates the octenalactone portion of solandelactones. Synthesis of solandelactones A, B, E, and F confirmed their gross structure and absolute configuration at C7, 8, 10, and 14 but showed that alcohol configuration at C11 must be reversed in pairs, A/B and E/F, from the previous assignment made to these hydroid metabolites. Thus, solandelactones A and B are correctly represented by 2 and 1, respectively, whereas solandelactones E and F are 6 and 5. A biogenesis of solandelactones is proposed for these C22 oxylipins that parallels a hypothesis put forward previously to explain the origin of C20 cyclopropane-containing algal products.

Asymmetrie total syntheses of solandelactones E and F confirmed that hydroxyl configuration at C11 in these oxylipins had been misassigned and that the stereochemistry at this center should be reversed. Key steps in the synthesis involved a Nagao asymmetr
