✦ Synopsis
A synthesis of the antiulcerogenic compound (+)-cassiol 1b has been achieved in 43% yield starting with lactol (S)-2 and sulfone 26. This short and efficient synthesis features the one-pot Julia olefination reaction of the sodium anion of (S)-2 with 26, through the key intermediate (-)-9. This synthesis has been developed as a result of exploratory experiments including different olefination reactions on 2. An attempt to synthesize the intermediate 9 by an intramolecular aldol condensation approach of the open chain precursor 4 is also described.

This article explores a central issue in system design, namely whether the system should be designed to meet clients' specification of their problem, or whether that problem should be reinterpreted by the system designer in order to exploit characteristics and potential of the computer-based medium.
