The title compound was prepared in a concise route starting from an appropriately protected (S)-glyceraldehyde. A highly diastereoselective (d.r. >95:5) Mukaiyama aldol reaction of an acetoacetate-derived silyl enol ether served as the initial step of the synthetic sequence. It was found that protection of the glyceraldehyde as a butane-2,3-dione acetal is required to achieve the desired diastereoselectivity. Upon lactonization, a Tsuji-Trost allylation and a subsequent one-pot reaction cascade including an ozonolysis and an α-hydroxylation gave diastereoselective access to the desired α-hydroxy-β-oxo-δ-lactone. Alternative synthetic approaches are discussed and proof for the configuration of the product is presented.

The multistep synthesis of a novel UDP-C-cyclohexene, designed as a high energy intermediate analogue of the UDP-galactopyranose mutase (UGM) catalyzed isomerization reaction, is reported. The synthesis of the central carbasugar involved the preparation of a galactitol derivative bearing two olefins necessary for the construction of the cyclohexene ring by a ring-closing metathesis as a key step. Further successive phosphonylation, deprotection, and UMP coupling provided the target molecule. The final molecule was assayed against UGM and compared with UDP-C-Galf, the C-glycosidic UGM substrate analogue.

The first total synthesis of the macrolactone antibiotic branimycin (4) has been described. The key disconnection leads to a cis-dehydrodecalone core and a polyketide side chain which are connected via organometallic addition. The dehydrodecalone core was targeted via altogether five different approaches featuring various kinds of chiral elements and ring-closing methodology. In the end the most successful method starting from diepoxynaphthalene 109 was chosen to carry on with the synthesis. Thus the oxygen functions and carbon appendages were introduced via organometallic desymmetrization reactions to generate epoxy ketone 107, to which vinyl iodide 11 was added after conversion into the organolithium species. The synthesis was completed by introducing the ester side chain via Michael addition and subsequent macrolactonization. Competitive approach: The first total synthesis of the macrolactone antibiotic branimycin is described (see figure). The dehydrodecalin core was targeted via five competing approaches featuring various kinds of chiral elements and ring-closing methodology. In this "Darwinian" struggle the most successful route emerged and led to the completion of the synthesis. Copyright
