, p. 5630 - 5632 (2011/09/16)
A convergent synthesis of the macrolactone core of amphidinolactone A has been achieved, in a 10 step linear sequence with 32% overall yield, through a ring-closing metathesis reaction as the macrolactonization step. The RCM precursor was obtained by the
Rapid total syntheses utilizing "supersilyl" chemistry

supporting information; experimental part, p. 2610 - 2612 (2011/05/03)
In short order: The shortest total syntheses of natural product EBC-23 (see scheme, PMB=para-methoxybenzyl, TMS=trimethylsilyl) and a polymethoxy-1-alkene to date have been accomplished in just ten total steps each from commercially available chemicals. The syntheses took advantage of highly diastereoselective supersilyl-directed cascade polyaldol reactions. Copyright
Total synthesis of aspinolide B: a ring-closing metathesis approach
Ghosh, Subhash,Rao, R. Vengal
, p. 6937 - 6940 (2008/02/13)
A highly convergent stereoselective total synthesis of aspinolide B, a 10-membered lactone is described. The key step includes a ring-closing metathesis reaction to construct the 10-membered ring and the E-olefinic moiety. d-Mannitol was used as a chiral
