(Matrix presented) WS9885B promotes the assembly of microtubules in vitro and displays cytotoxicity as potent as paclitaxel against several cancer cell lines. In this Letter, we propose a biogenesis for this architecturally complex bacterial metabolite fr

The C23-C27 1,3-diol was constructed via either Brown's crotylation - osmylation or regio- and stereoselective opening of an 2,9-anhydro-β-ribofuranoside derived from D-xylofuranose. Lewis acid catalyzed epoxide opening with a protected lithiofurfural alc
