The totalsynthesis of curacin A, a cytotoxic agent that interacts with the colchicine binding site on tubulin, is described. The convergentsynthesis utilizes natural product and chiral pool starting materials (geraniol, serine) and asymmetricsynthesis (chiral allylborane addition, Charette cyclopropanation) to procure the various chiral fragments in enantiomerically pure form. The assembly of the
