	abstract = {An asymmetric formal synthesis of fasicularin (1) is described. This natural product, isolated from the extracts of the marine invertebrate Nephteis fasicularis, has shown modest cytotoxicity towards Vero cells. Fasicularin is among only two members of the cylindricine family of natural products, along with lepadiformine (2), to possess a trans A-B ring junction. Key steps of this approach to 1 involve a siloxy-epoxide semipinacol rearrangement of 5 to 6, a B-alkyl Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction by using enol trifluoromethanesulfonate 19 and a substrate-directed hydrogenation reaction of 24. This formal synthesis also highlights the difficulty in the incorporation of the thiocyanate functionality present in 1.},
