Concise total syntheses of heliannuols B and D

Concise and efficient enantioselective total syntheses of heliannuols B and D have been accomplished using chirality transfer through a Lewis acid-promoted Claisen rearrangement for the construction of the C7 tertiary stereogenic center and a relay ring-closing metathesis for assembling the dihydrobenzo[b]oxepine backbone of the natural products as the key steps.
