An efficient and stereoselective synthesis of the C13 - C23 part (8) was achieved starting from methyl (R) - and (S)-3-hydroxy-2-methylpropionates (9) via coupling of the C13 - C17 aldehyde (6), prepared by Evans asymmetric aldol reaction, with the C18 - C21 iodoalkene (5b) by taking advantage of the 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl protecting group.
