Abstract
A simple and efficient synthesis of macrocyclic dilactone tetrahydropyrenophorol has been accomplished from inexpensive and commercially available starting materials. This concise synthesis utilizes regioselective ring opening of epoxide, asymmetric dihydroxylation, and Mitsunobu reaction for the construction of the macrolactone.
