Abstract
Progress toward the synthesis of the microtubule-stabilizing agent, (-)-zampanolide, is reported. Construction of the 2,6-cis-tetrahydropyran ring was accomplished utilizing ether transfer methodology in conjunction with an intramolecular radical cyclization reaction. Efficient installation of the C16-C20 side chain relied on a one-pot cross-metathesis/olefination sequence, Sharpless epoxidation, and selective reduction of a vinyl epoxide.Entities:
