Abstract

Abstract Flexible friends: A new strategy that relies on o-DPPB-directed allylic substitution has been implemented for the flexible and stereospecific construction of major polyketide and isoprenoid structural elements (see scheme; o-DPPB= ortho-diphenylphosphanyl benzoate; PG= protecting group).
