title: First stereoselective synthesis of (+)-magnostellin C, a tetrahydrofuran type of lignan bearing a chiral secondary benzyl alcohol.
abstract: (+)-Magnostellin C, which is a tetrahydrofuran type of lignan bearing a chiral secondary benzylic hydroxy group, was stereoselectively synthesized from L-arabinose by using threo selective aldol condensation.
