Abstract
A formal total synthesis of the oxopentaene macrolide antibiotic RK-397 has been achieved. Nine stereocenters were established by a combination of allylation and our asymmetric hydration reactions and a 1,5 anti-selective aldol reaction. The synthesis proceeded in 19 steps from simple achiral conjugated dienoates.Entities:
