Abstract

A concise stereoselective total synthesis of eight-membered lactone (−)-cephalosporolide D has been derived from inexpensive and commercially available starting material (S)-propylene epoxide. This concise synthesis utilizes Grignard reaction, Noyori asymmetric reduction, and Yamaguchi macrolactonization as key steps.
