The stereocontrolled convergent synthesis of 19′-deoxyperidinin, 2, which might be a useful peridinin analog to understand the ICT characteristics, was efficiently achieved by sequential Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions using bidirectionally extensible conjugated C5 olefin segments. The crucial 5(2H)-ylidenedihydrofuran function of 2 was successfully constructed by the Au-catalyzed regio- and stereoselective 5-exo-dig etherification.
