✦ Synopsis
The novel tetracyclic sesquiterpenoid (+)-cyclomyltaylan-5o~ol 1 has been synthesized starting from (S)-(+)-Hajos-Wiechert ketone analogue 3 via SmI2-promoted reductive cyclization as a key step. Thus, the absolute configuration has been established to be 2R,3R, 4R,5S,6R,7R (cyclomyltaylane numbering) as depicted in structure 1.

Starting from (S)-malic acid and (S)-glycidol, the first total synthesis of strictifolione, a new 6-(v-phenylalkenyl)-5,6dihydro-a-pyrone isolated from Cryptocarya strictifolia, was accomplished, which confirmed its structure including the absolute configuration of the asymmetric centers.
