Abstract
Abstract Total synthesis of bongkrekic acid, an important apoptosis inhibitor, has been accomplished. The strategy includes inexpensive starting materials, asymmetric alkylation, anionic allyl coupling and oxidative manipulations. This process would provide a sufficient amount of bongkrekic acid and its analogues.
