An efficient total synthesis of (+)-aspergillide B has been achieved, which features the C-glycosylation reaction for constructing the 2,6-trans-substituted pyran core, a highly effective four-step sequence without purification to produce the key intermediate 13 and an advantegous E-selective Julia−Kocienski olefination on a highly elaborate substrate. The synthesis confirmed the revised structure of aspergillide B by Uenishi.
