Herein, we report the first total synthesis of (R)-penicimenolide A, twelve membered RAL (RAL12) isolated from Penicillium sp. (NO. SYP-F-7919). Besides, we also report the total synthesis of two other members, namely, (R)-trans-resorcyclide and (R)-dihydroresorcyclide. In the course of synthesis, we have utilized ring closing metathesis (RCM) as the key step in constructing the core macrolactone scaffold. (C) 2021 Elsevier Ltd.
