The total synthesis of (-)-litsenolides C1 and C2 from D-glucose in 12percent overall yield is described in which the α-alkylidene double-bond is formed by a Wittig reaction of a C-2 oxocarbohydrate derivative.
STEREOSELECTIVE SYNTHESIS OF THE MIDDLE (C10-C17) AND RIGHT (C18-C30) SEGMENTS, AND THEIR COUPLING TO COMPLETE A FORMAL SYNTHESIS OF THE POLYETHER ANTIBIOTIC SALINOMYCIN

The middle (C10-C17) and right (C18-C30) segments of the polyether antibiotic salinomycin were stereoselectively synthesized from D-glucose, D-mannitol, and ethyl L-lactate.Coupling of the two segments followed by construction of the bisketal ring system gave the C10-C30 segment, which was already converted to salinomycin by Kishy.

Naturally occurring α-alkylidene-γ-butyrolactones can be prepared from a carbohydrate precursor using Wittig methodology to form the exocyclic double bond.
