An extremely convergent (longest linear sequence, 16 steps), fully stereoselective, and potentially general synthesis of the antibiotic ionophores of the Calcimycin (A-23187) class was devised. The key steps involve a coupling reaction between the chiral nonracemic subunits dihydropyran 41 (as the α-lithio anion) and bromide 49. Subsequent acid-promoted cyclization directly produces the spirocyclic ring system found in the ionophore X-14885A (3). Alternatively, cyclopropanation of substituted vinyl ether 55 followed by acid treatment afforded the spiroketal 58 that was subsequently converted into the polyether ionophore Calcimycin (1) and also Cezomycin (2).
