A 16-membered macrolide antibiotic, protomycinolide IV, was synthesized from two fragments to which the chirality was introduced by asymmetric epoxidation of the appropriately chosen allylic alcohols.A new synthesis of the Prelog-Djerassi lactonic acid from one of the intermediates of the synthesis was also carried out.
