Total Synthesis of (−)-Mucocin

Abstract
A highly convergent, modular strategy for the total synthesis of the annonaceous acetogenin (−)‐mucocin is reported. The remarkable features are the endo‐selective formation of the tetrahydropyran ring from an activated epoxide and the stability of the butenolide in the coupling with an organomagnesium compound.
