Abstract

A concise, (Z)-selective ring-closing metathesis (RCM) route to the 14-membered carbocycle of bielschowskysin is detailed, using nat-urally occurring chiral starting materials. Unproductive RCM substrates were attributed to alkyne chelation of the ruthenium cata-lyst and steric disadvantages within the cembranoid precursors, which was eventually circumvented by using cyclic diol benzylidene protection involving a C8-quaternary carbinol centre.
