Derivatives of apoptolidin, including skeletal homologues, are potent and selective apoptosis-inducing agents which, unlike apoptolidin, do not undergo isomerization under physiological conditions. These compounds exhibit antitumor properties, often superior to those of apoptolidin, and as such can be used in the treatment of cancer and other hyperproliferative disorders.

The total synthesis of apoptolidin (1) is reported together with the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a number of analogues. The assembly of key fragments 6 and 7 to vinyl iodide 3 via dithiane coupling technology was supplemented by a seco
