Treatment of the aldehyde vinyl iodides 17, 19 a and 19 b in DMSO with CrCl2-NiCl2 resulted in their macrocyclisation to the oxygenated ring systems 18, 20, and 21 respectively (43-63%) of the PAF antagonist phomactin A isolated from the marine fungus Phoma sp. The same bicyclo[9.3.1]pentadecane ring system 24 could also be produced by treatment of the polyene 23 with Grubbs' ruthenium catalyst in hot CH2Cl2 for 10 h (∼ 30%).
