Abstract
[structure: see text]. An efficient, rapid synthesis of the A, B, C rings of terreulactone A is described. Key steps in the synthesis include a diastereoselective benzylic acid rearrangement to create the desired quaternary center at C2 and a mild bromolactonization to assemble the lactonic ring A.
