Construction of 8-Membered Ring Skeleton of Vinigrol via SmI2-Promoted Barbier Coupling

Abstract
The 8-membered ring framework of vinigrol, a unique tricyclic diterpene isolated as a novel antihypertensive compound from a culture of Virgaria nigra, was efficiently synthesized employing an SmI2-induced intramolecular Barbier coupling.
