Abstract

Synthesis of the C19-truncated maltepolide E has been accomplished via a diene-ene ring-closing metathesis (RCM) strategy without damage to the C11-C14 alkenyl epoxy unit. Upon release of the C17-OH group, it attacked at the C14 position with double bond migration and epoxide ring opening to furnish the C19-truncated maltepolides A and B as proposed for the biosynthesis of maltepolides.
