A general approach to the synthesis of all known strobilurins -a class of natural products -is outlined with strobilurin B as an example. Strobilurin A (1) was first isolated in 1969 under the name of mucidin by Musilek and co-workers 1) from the fungus Oudemansiella mucida. The structure as well a
Total synthesis of theopederin B, isolated from marine sponge, was accomplished by coupling pederic acid, as the left half, with trioxodecaline amine as the right half. Key reactions for synthesizing the amine were SmI 2 -promoted Reformatsky reaction, stereoselective allylation followed by Sharples
