The spirocyclic core of the siphonarins was constructed by a directed cyclization of a linear triketone, prepared using a Sn(II)-mediated aldol coupling and Swern oxidation at C9 and C13. To circumvent a facile retro-Claisen pathway generating a baconipyrone-type ester, a Ni(II)/Cr(II)-mediated coupling reaction with vinyl iodide was used to complete the first synthesis of siphonarin B and dihydrosiphonarin B. A stable isomeric spiroacetal was also prepared which could not be equilibrated to the siphonarin skeleton.
