Producing laulimalide
Engineering of a recombinant biosynthetic pathway Produce macrocyclic precursors by fermentation Several synthetic transformations will have to be validated
• install the transannular dihydropyran
• 2,3-Z olefin.
Provides new rapid and efficient strategy for total synthesis

Hypothesis tested using model system
Can we form dihydropyrans via transannular oxa-conjugate addition in 20-membered rings?
Is oxa-conjugate addition a stereoselective reaction?
Kinetic or thermodynamically controlled?

Conclusions
Transannular oxa-conjugate addition can occur
High energy oxetane favored over low energy dihydropyran
Unusual regioselectivity of acid catalyzed oxa-conjugate addition
Regioselectivity could be attributed to olefin geometry of elimination (triene intermediate)
