title: Studies directed toward the total synthesis of lancifodilactone G: an expeditious route to the ABC subunit.
abstract: An efficient entry to the ABC network of lancifodilactone G is outlined. The C ring is constructed by way of enyne ring-closing metathesis. The AB component is established via a base-mediated biomimetic oxy-Michael addition--lactonization sequence.
