A strategy for the assembly of the entire carbon backbone of a stereoisomer of the antitumor marine natural product hemicalide has been investigated. The devised convergent approach relies on Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons and Julia-Kocienski olefination reactions for the construction of the C6=C7 and C34=C35 double bonds, respectively, an aldol reaction to create the C27-C28 bond, and a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling as the endgame to form the C15-C16 bond.
