title: Total synthesis of (+)-arteanniun M using the tandem oxy-Cope/ene reaction.
abstract: [see reaction]. The first total synthesis of (+)-arteannuin M was accomplished using the tandem oxy-Cope/transannular ene reaction as the key step to construct the bicyclic core of the natural product. The tandem reaction proceeded with high diastereo- and enantiomeric excess.
