✦ Synopsis
We describe an expeditious enantioselective total synthesis of the acetylenic marine natural products (R)-strongylodiols A and B. Central to the strategy is the use of Zn(OTf) 2 , amine base, and N-methyl ephedrine to mediate the direct addition of a 1,3-diyne to two longchain aliphatic aldehydes in useful selectivities and yields.

We have devised a total synthesis of (12R,13S,15R) salicylihalamides A and B, which allowed revision of the absolute stereochemistry of the natural compounds. The same strategy was then applied to the preparation of naturally occurring salicylihalamides.
