Asymmetric Total Synthesis of (+)-Phoslactomycin B

(+)-Phoslactomycin B was synthesized by a highly enantio- and stereoselective approach involving asymmetric pentenylation, Suzuki−Miyaura coupling, ring-closing metathesis, asymmetric dihydroxylation, and Stille coupling. The synthetic method developed enables us to synthesize three other isomers concerning the C11-OH and Δ12-double bond.
