Abstract
The stereocontrolled synthesis of the C1-C17 fragment 3.1.2 of bafilomycin A1 1.1.1 involved the use of alkoxyallyltin to generate the C14 and C15 stereocenters (C13-C17 fragment 3.1.4), the stereospecific construction of the C10-C11 trisubstituted olefin via organocuprate addition to methyl 2-butynoate and C6-C8 stereotriad construction by nucleophilic cleavage of an epoxy alcohol with lithium dimethylcuprate (C5-C12 fragment 3.1.5). The C10-C12 diene system was created by coupling of 3.1.4 with 3.1.5 by means of a modified Julia olefination reaction. Introduction of the diene functionality at the C5 terminus was followed by lactonisation to afford the C1-C17 fragment 3.1.2 of bafilomycin A1 1.1.1 (Fig 13223).
