Abstract | The first synthesis of a newly found naturally occurring anti-malarial nonenolide is described. A pivotal step in the synthesis is the ring-closing metathesis of a dienoic ester prepared by coupling an acid and alcohol that were stereoselectively synthesized from (S)-alpha-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone and 1,2-O-isopropylidene D-glyceraldchyde, respectively.
