Abstract

"TADA!" is not the trumpet fanfare but the transannular Diels-Alder reaction concluding the synthesis of the tetracyclic core of the mangicols, a family of marine sesterterpenes. Further highlights in the synthesis include a novel chlorination and an intramolecular Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi coupling reaction. Bn=benzyl.
