Two approaches are presented for the synthesis of the macrolide core of the mycolactone polyketides. The first intertwines ring closing metathesis (RCM) within a two-step Julia olefination protocol, while the second intercepts the optimized routes of Kishi, thereby providing formal access to the mycolactones.
