Efficient and highly stereoselective syntheses of cryptophycin B and arenastatin A, potent cytotoxic agents, are described. An ester-derived titanium enolate mediated syn-aldol reaction was employed to generate the stereocenters C-5 and C-6. The route is convergent and provides a convenient access to the synthesis of structural variants of cryptophycins as well as members of its family. ( Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

[structure--see text] An efficient and highly stereoselective synthesis of cryptophycin B (2), a potent cytotoxic agent, is described. The ester-derived titanium-enolate-mediated syn-aldol reaction was employed to generate the stereocenters C(5) and C(6). The route is convergent and provides a convenient access to the synthesis of structural variants of cryptophycin B as well as members of its family.
