Artificial analogs of aplyronine A (1), a potent antitumor macrolide, were synthesized and structure-activity (cytotoxicity and actin-depolymerizing activity) relationships were investigated; the side-chain in 1 was found to play a key role in both biological activities.

The aplyronine C1-C11 subunit 4, containing 4 stereocentres and the (E,E)-diene system, was prepared in 7 steps from ethyl ketone (R)-8 using a boron-mediated anti aldol reaction. The corresponding C15-C27 subunit 5, containing 6 stereogenic centres and an (E)-alkene, was obtained in 10 steps from ketone (S)-14 using a tin(II)-mediated syn aldol reaction and CBS enone reduction.
