title: A domino enyne/IMDA approach to the core structure of (-) vinigrol.
abstract: We report here an enantioselective formal synthesis of vinigrol involving a 1-2-3 strategy: one pot and two reactions with the formation of three rings leading to the core structure of vinigrol from its stereochemically well-defined acyclic precursor.
