Ziegler, Frederick E.,Cain, William T.
, p. 3347 - 3353 (1989)
A synthesis of (+)-carboxylic acid 2a, which has been previously converted into the ionophore (-)-calcimycin (A-23187) and analogues thereof, is described.The synthesis involves the use of (S)-3-methyl-γ-butyrolactone (4) and both enantiomers of allylic alcohol 3a as the chiral entities.
