Abstract
A total synthesis of (+/-)-chokol A (rac-12) was accomplished in five steps by starting from the alpha,beta-unsaturated ester (E)-2 in an ov erall yield of 24%. The key step of this synthesis is the tandem conju gate addition/Dieckmann cyclization of the cuprate derived from vinyl bromide 9 with the alpha,beta-unsaturated ester (E)-2.
