Asymmetric total synthesis of (+)-phoslactomycin B

Org Lett. 2008 Jun 5;10(11):2139-42. doi: 10.1021/ol8004672. Epub 2008 May 8.

Abstract

(+)-Phoslactomycin B was synthesized by a highly enantio- and stereoselective approach involving asymmetric pentenylation, Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, ring-closing metathesis, asymmetric dihydroxylation, and Stille coupling. The synthetic method developed enables us to synthesize three other isomers concerning the C11-OH and Delta12-double bond.
