Concise synthesis of (-)-epicatechin and its 3-O-gallate is described, illustrating efficacy of the new strategy for catechin-class polyphenols based on assembly of lithiated fluorobenzene and epoxy alcohol followed by a pyran cyclization. 1,3,5-Trifluorobenzene serves as the A-ring equivalent for functionalization and the pyran annulation.
