โฆ Synopsis
The synthesis of ellacene (1 ,lO-cyclododecanotriquinancene) 2 has been achieved via the Weiss reaction. The regiospecific monoallylation of 6 to provide 7,and the pyrolysis of tris xanthate 11 in HMPA at 22O'C to furnish 2 represent the key steps in the sequence. The HMPA-mediated dehydration of trio1 10 to form the ethers 12 and 13 in preference to the desired 2 has also been observed.

The aldol approach to construct the tetracyclic polyquinane skeleton of l2, followed by hydroboration and the HMPA mediated dehydration of four hydroxyl groups has resulted in the facile synthesis of the chiral polyquinene, tetracyclo[6.6.D.01t5.08\*12]telrddocane-3,6,10,13\_tetraene 2. This method
The synthesis of polyquinane 2 is described. The key steps were the Wolff-Kishner reduction of & to provide m, and the acetic, sulfuric acid-mediated aldol cyclization to convert the bisacetal 11 into the target 2. Olefin isomerization during the Wolff-Kishner reduction was overcome by addition of A
A new synthesis of tricyclic lactones via allene intramolecular cycloaddition and its application to synthesis of (f)-platyphyllide are described.
