Abstract
The first total synthesis of peridinin 1 and pyrrhoxanthin 2 has been accomplished via the reaction of the C15-epoxy formyl ester 21 with the C22-allenic sulfone 28 or the C22-acetylenic sulfone 39. A synthesis of optically active peridinin has also been achieved starting from the (4R,6R)-hydroxy ketone 5.Keywords
