title: Pinacol macrocyclization-based route to the polyfused medium-sized CDE ring system of lancifodilactone G.
abstract: The polyfused medium-sized CDE ring system of lancifodilactone G is assembled via B-alkyl Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling and SmI 2-mediated pinacol macrocyclization as the key strategic steps.
