Abstract
Extension of anion relay chemistry (ARC) beyond the area of dithianes has been achieved by the design of two effective ARC linchpins capable of three- and four-component couplings. To showcase the ARC tactic in natural product synthesis, a cytotoxic gorgonian linear sesquiterpene was constructed, and the absolute configuration assigned via the Kakisawa/Mosher method. The synthesis proceeded in five steps with an overall yield of 22%.Entities:
