Abstract

A convergent route to (−)-candelalide A involved the union of a trans-decalin portion (AB ring) and a γ-pyrone moiety through the C16−C3‘ bond to assemble the whole carbon framework and subsequent formation of the dihydropyran ring (C ring) as the crucial steps. A strategic [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement was employed for establishing the stereogenic center at C9 and an exo-methylene function at C8 present in the decalin portion.
