Abstract
The C16-C22 fragment with the acetylene terminus was constructed through the asymmetric dihydroxylation of the corresponding olefin, while the 15-iodo-olefin corresponding to the C11-C15 part was prepared via the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of the corresponding acetylene ketone followed by hydrozirconation/iodination. Both pieces were joined by a Sonogashira coupling, and the product was further converted into the title compound via a Wittig reaction with the remaining C1-C10 segment and Boland reduction using Zn with TMSCl.
