A simple and efficient asymmetric total synthesis of the bis-macrolactone (-)-colletol was accomplished, proving the versatility of the Prins cyclisation in natural product synthesis. The synthesis mainly relies upon reductive opening of a pyran ring, Mitsunobu inversion, the Wittig reaction, and Yamaguchi macro-lactonisation as the key steps.
