Abstract
Abstract: An extremely convergent (longest linear sequence, 16 steps), fully stereoselective, and potentially general synthesis of the antibiotic ionophores of the Calcimycin (A-23187) class was devised. The key steps involve a coupling reaction between the chiral nonracemic subunits dihydropyran 41 (as the a-lithio anion) and bromide 49. Subsequent acid-promoted cyclization directly produces the spirocyclic ring system found in the ionophore X-14885A ...
