Synthesis of (--)-Muricatacin via alpha- and alpha'-C-H bond functionalization of tetrahydrofuran.
    The Journal of organic chemistry, 2003, Sep-19, Volume: 68, Issue:19

    (--)-Muricatacin, a potent cytotoxic (4R,5R)-5-hydroxyheptadecan-4-olide, has been synthesized through alpha-C--H hydroxyalkylation and alpha'-C--H oxidation of tetrahydrofuran. This study presents a novel method for C--H bond functionalization as a means for preparing gamma-(hydroxyalkyl)-gamma-butyrolactones.
