- Total synthesis of epothilones B and D
-
(Matrix presented) A highly convergent total synthesis of the natural products epothilone B and D is described. The route is highlighted by efficient generation of a C12-C13 trisubstituted olefin which exploits a sequential Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi coupling and a stereoselective thionyl chloride rearrangement.

- Total Syntheses of Epothilones B and D
-
Total syntheses of the microtubule stabilizing antitumor drugs epothilone B and D are described, starting from optically pure (S)-malic acid and methyl (R)-3-hydroxy-2-methylpropionate. The synthesis is highly convergent by coupling the three fragments C1-C6 (fragment D), C7-C10 (fragment C), and C11-C21 (fragment B). Key steps are two stereoselective Wittig type olefinations to generate the 12,13- and 16,17-double bonds, an enantioselective Mukaiyama aldol addition to synthesize fragment D, and a sulfone anion allyl iodide alkylation to connect fragments B and C. Finally fragment D was attached to the B + C fragment via aldol addition.

- Synthesis of 16-desmethylepothilone B: Improved methodology for the rapid, highly selective and convergent construction of epothilone B and analogues
-
During a synthesis of 16-desmethylepothilone B new methods for the convergent and highly stereoselective synthesis of epothilone B and analogues were developed.

- Easy access to the epothilone family - Synthesis of epothilone B
-
An easy access to four out of five naturally occurring epothilones (A- E, 1-5) is reported. Key steps are an enantioselective Mukaiyama type aldol reaction, (E)- and (Z)-selective olefinations, and a sulfone alkylation.

- Total syntheses of epothilones A and B via a macrolactonization-based strategy
-
The total syntheses of epothilones A (1) and B (2) and several analogues thereof are described. The reported strategy relies on a macrolactonization approach and features selective epoxidation of the macrocycle double bond in precursors 3 and 4 (Scheme 1), respectively, as well as high convergency and flexibility. Building blocks 9-12 and 15 were constructed by asymmetric processes and coupled via Wittig, aldol, and macrolactonization reactions to afford the basic skeleton of epothilones and that of several of their analogues by a relatively short route. The utilization ofintermediate 14, obtained via a stereoselective Wittig reaction and its Enders coupling to SAMP hydrazone 13 (Scheme 8), in combination with a stereoselective aldol reaction with the modified substrate 69 (Scheme 10) improved the stereoselectivity and efficiency of the total synthesis of these new and highly potent microtubule binding antitumor agents.
