(Chemical Equation Presented) A program directed toward an asymmetric synthesis of pestalotiopsin A is described. The routing begins with the dextrorotatory cyclobutanol 37, which is combined with the enantiomerically defined building blocks ent-15 and 16
Synthetic studies toward ansatrienines: Application of the Evans- Tishchenko reaction to chiral enones

Practical syntheses of the C9-C14 sterotriade 5 and the C1-C8 polyene unit 6 in ansatrienine A (mycotriene) (1a), and other ansamycin antibiotics is described. A key step for controlling the configuration of the stereogenic center at C13 involves the stereoselective reduction of enone 10 using the Evans-Tishchenko reaction.
