Abstract

A highly enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-furanomycin 24 has been achieved via the mercury cation-mediated cyclizations of γ-hydroxy alkene 4 and homoallylic trichloroacetimidate 11 to install the trans-2,5-disubstituted tetrahydrofuran and the (αS)-amino acid side chain, respectively.
