Desmethyl erythronolides have emerged as macrolide targets that may prove effective against resistant bacteria. A five-step sequence to 4,10-didesmethyl (9S)-dihydroerythronolide A (1) from known cyclic bis[allene] 13 is reported. Key structural and mechanistic aspects of the synthesis are discussed along with catalytic allene osmylation. An improved route to 13 is also described.

The complexity and low tractability of antibiotic macrolides pose serious challenges to addressing the problem of resistance through semi- or total synthesis. Here we describe a new strategy involving the preparation of a complex yet tractable macrocycle
