Toward the total synthesis of disorazole A(1) and C(1): asymmetric synthesis of a masked southern segment

Org Lett. 2002 Sep 19;4(19):3239-42. doi: 10.1021/ol026468j.

Abstract

[reaction: see text] A highly convergent asymmetric synthesis of the masked southern segment of the antimitotic agent disorazole A(1) involves a Sonogashira coupling between a C1'-C10' enyne and a suitably protected C11'-C19' vinyl iodide. The central E,Z,Z-triene moiety is masked as a more stable ynediene.
