An enantioselective synthesis of potent eukaryotic translation elongation inhibitor lactimidomycin has been accomplished in 21 linear steps. This synthesis features a Zn(II)-mediated Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction that could be executed on a large scale to provide the highly strained 12-membered lactimidomycin macrolactone.
