A concise and convergent eight-step synthesis of the antifungal metabolite monocerin 1 is reported. The key step involves an allylsilane metathesis/aldehyde condensation sequence to establish the core 2,3,5-trisubstituted tetrahydrofuran. End-game approaches based around intramolecular Heck chemistry revealed an interesting example of formal 6-endo cyclisation, the origin of which was probed using
