We have developed a new synthetic route to phomoidride B, which could also be applied to the synthesis of phomoidride B derivatives using Pd-catalyzed coupling reaction of a thiolester with an organozinc reagent. In addition, direct construction of the maleic anhydride moiety has been achieved by a Pd-catalyzed carbonylation reaction.
