Abstract
The hydroquinone lactone core of the floresolides was synthesized through a ring-closing metathesis (RCM) approach. Optimal RCM efficiency was obtained at higher reaction concentration. An unexpected Lewis acid-promoted rearrangement of the hydroquinone and other observations relevant to on-going total synthesis efforts are discussed.
