Abstract
The first total synthesis of tricyclic humulanolide wilfolide B was achieved. The synthetic strategy involved: i) radical cyclization with samarium(II) iodide to construct the bicyclic lactone from an acyclic compound, and ii) ring-closing metathesis to build the eight-membered ring by connecting two side chains, thus completing the tricyclic framework.
