26. A similar disconnection has been applied in the racemic synthesis of 1 starting with 3 (or a slight variant) and 3-furyllithium (see refs 5b-e). The yield for this transformation has been <30%.
27. These compounds were prepared in a straightforward fashion using well-established literature procedures. See Supporting Information for details.

29. 2 has been previously shown to provide products with R configuration. We initially assigned the stereochemistry for 16 on the basis of the above precedents, which was later confirmed by the synthesis of the natural product.

32. Attempts to form the six-membered ring with an acyl-oxazolidinone (instead of the methyl ester) gave complex product mixtures.
33. d = 3.6 Hz, 1H). The 12 Hz coupling constant clearly establishes the relative stereochemistry at the ring as trans.
34. Temperature of the reaction is important to avoid the premature formation of the lactone.
