Abstract

A convergent approach for the synthesis of (±)-myricanol, a strained diarylheptanoid isolated from Myricacae, was undertaken using a Suzuki–Miyaura coupling followed by a ring-closing metathesis (RCM). Herein, we report the unintentional formation of a 26-membered macrocycle as RCM product resulting from a head-to-tail dimerization of the seco-precursor, even in relay ring-closing metathesis (RRCM) conditions.
