title: Highly functionalized pyranopyrans from furans: a synthesis of the C27-C38 and C44-C53 subunits of norhalichondrin B.
abstract: A synthesis of highly functionalized pyranopyrans based on an Achmatowicz oxidation followed by a remarkably diastereoselective Kishi reduction is described in the context of studies directed toward norhalichondrin B.
