Abstract

Palladium-catalyzed carbonylation of 3,5-dimethoxybenzyl chloride (13) with benzyl 7-hydroxyoctanoate (12) afforded benzyl 7-(3,5-dimethoxyphenylacetoxy)octanoate (6) in 70% yield, which is the precursor of Curvularin (4). The ester (12) was easily prepared from the butadiene telomer obtained by the palladium-catalyzed reaction of butadiene with acetic acid.
