Abstract
Kendomycin, an ansamycin-type natural product first reported in 1996, possesses a series of attractive bioactivities and a unique all-carbon macrocyclic skeleton. To the date, seven total syntheses, two formal total syntheses and a number of synthetic studies on this hot molecule have been reported. In this short review article, we mainly survey and comment on these efforts regarding the difficult macrocyclization strategies.Entities:
