An enantioselective synthesis of (-)-kendomycin is described and is based on the application of the organosilane-based [4 + 2]-annulation strategy for the assembly of the C1a-C10 fragment. An underutilized samarium(II) iodide-assisted cyclization (intramolecular Barbier-type reaction) is employed to afford the protected macrocycle.

An efficient entry into the phosphorylated marine macrolide enigmazole A is described. Enigmazole A interferes with c‐Kit signaling by an as yet unknown mode of action and is therefore a potential lead in the quest for novel anticancer agents. Key to success is a gold‐catalyzed cascade comprising a [3,3]‐sigmatropic rearrangement of a propargyl acetate along the periphery of a macrocyclic scaffold
