supporting information; experimental part, p. 298 - 301 (2009/04/14)
Three subunits of the potent actin polymerization inhibitor Latrunculin B were synthesized and assembled using olefin-olefin ring closing metathesis chemistry to close the 14-membered macrocycle. Metathesis reactions of substrates with various remote protecting group patterns were examined and gave 6,7-E-lactones as the preferred products.

The total syntheses of (+)-latrunculin A (1) and (+)-latrunculin B (2), two architecturally novel toxins isolated from the Red Sea sponge Latrunculia magnifica (Keller), have been achieved via highly convergent and stereocontrolled routes (longest linear sequences, 16 and 12 steps, respectively). Formal syntheses of scalemic latrunculins C (3) and M (5) also derive from the construction of 2. Central features of the unified synthetic strategy include the aldol reaction of aldehyde (-)-12 with methyl ketone (-)-13, a novel acid-catalyzed reorganization-equilibration of ortho ester (-)-11, and Mitsunobu macrolide cyclization.
