A stereoselective synthesis of the EFGH ring fragment of ciguatoxin CTX3C has been achieved through: (i) selective cleavage of a dioxepane acetal C O bond; (ii) radical cyclization to form the oxepane G ring; and (iii) chemoselective ring-closing metathesis of a triene yielding the hexahydrooxonin F
