Enantioselective total synthesis of pladienolide B: A potent spliceosome inhibitor
Ghosh, Arun K.,Anderson, David D.
, p. 4730 - 4733 (2013/01/15)
An enantioselective and convergent total synthesis of pladienolide B (1) is described. Pladienolide B binds to the SF3b complex of a spliceosome and inhibits mRNA splicing activity. The synthesis features an epoxide opening reaction, an asymmetric reduction of a β-keto ester, and a cross metathesis strategy for the side chain synthesis.
