(+)-Artemisinin and (+)-Deoxoartemisinin were prepared for the first time from arteannuinB. The synthetic route is short and efficient, making use of the prior art for the final photo-oxygenation/cyclization reaction. A convergent route to each of the above-named products from arteannuic acid is also described. A novel oxidative lactonization reaction was developed for this sequence.
