Vinigrol is a structurally and stereochemically complex natural product that displays various potent pharmacological activities, including the capability to modulate TNF-α. A new and efficient synthetic route toward this natural product has been developed to complete the asymmetric synthesis of (−)-vinigrol and provide over 600 mg of material, manifesting the power of macrocyclic stereocontrol and transannular Diels–Alder reaction.
