✦ Synopsis
A ten steps total synthesis of (-) altholactone, enantiomer of an antitumor pyrone isolated from Goniothahw species, is described starting from Dglucose. (+) Altholactone 1 has been isolated in 1977 by LODER et al? from an unknown PotyaZthea species. This substance is characterized by a cis-fused tetrahydrofurano-2 pyrone structure proposed on the basis of spectral data and chemical derivatization. Recently, MCLAUGHLIN et d? have extracted 1 (structure confirmed by X-Ray analysis) from the stem bark of Goniothubmus giganteus Annonceae and subsequently shown that it is cytotoxic in vitro (BS, 9 KB) and active in aiuo against P 388 leukemia. 4 \3 phm 2 HO/' 9 O Ii
