title: Total synthesis of (+)-anamarine.
abstract: Total synthesis of (+)-anamarine a polyoxygenated δ-pyranone natural product was accomplished via cross-metathesis protocol starting from 3-butene-1-ol and glycidol. Other key features of this synthetic strategy include use of Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation, dihydroxylation, and deoxygenation-isomerization through allene rearrangement.
