Abstract
Only eight steps were required for the total synthesis of (+)-citreoviral (3) from chiral imide 1 in 18% overall yield. The key steps included a highly anti-selective aldol reaction, the stereoselective iodolactonization of a γ,δ-unsaturated β-hydroxyimide, and an intramolecular S N2 reaction of a tertiary alcohol to form intermediate 2.
