A novel preparation of (+)-methyl pederate (4), a key intermediate in syntheses of mycalamides (1), marine natural products from a New Zealand sponge of the genus Mycale, is described. The key step involves palladium-catalyzed intramolecular allylic alkylation of the carbonate 21, derived from (+)-(4R,5R,E)-5-(tert-butyldimethylsiloxy)-4-methyl-2-hexenol (13), yielding lactones 5 in 87% yield. Demethoxycarbonylation of the cyclization products 5 and further functional group transformations led to (+)-methyl pederate (4).

A highly diastereoselective synthesis of methyl pederate (2) is described. A critical feature of the successful route is the introduction of the key C(7)-stereocenter at the stage of 4 via an enantioselective, syn-selective aldol reaction of aldehyde 5 and the chiral acyl oxazolidinone 6. Aldehyde 5, in turn, was prepared from the readily available aldol derivative 7 via a chelate-controlled reaction with allyltrimethylsilane.
