A convergent stereocontrolled synthesis of the antifungal antibiotic tautomycin, a potent protein phosphatases inhibitor, has been achieved first via key aldol coupling of two large subunits, a right-hand C-1-C-21 ketone and a left-hand aldehyde (left from C-22). The C-1-C-10 segment was synthesized through a remote stereochemical control process using a spiroketal template. After joining with the C-11-C-18 segment, the spiroketal moiety was selectively constructed. Then the right-hand C-1-C-21 ketone was synthesized via Roush asymmetric crotylboration. The left-hand aldehyde was prepared from a C-21-C-26 Segment and a dialkylmaleic anhydride segment. Completely stereoselective assemblage of the two subunits, the right-hand and the left-hand, was achieved by employing the Mukaiyama aldol reaction. Further functional group manipulations including desilylation, oxidation at C-2, and deprotection of tert-butyl ester with concomitant anhydride formation provided tautomycin which was identical with the natural product. As a preliminary study, derivatizations and degradation of the natural product were also examined to support the total synthesis.

Stereoselective total synthesis of structurally intriguing antimalarial macrolide strasseriolide A has been accomplished by adopting a convergent approach. The salient features of this synthesis include Co(BH4)2-mediated selective reduction of conjugated olefin, Crimmins propionate aldol, Evans alkylation, intermolecular Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons olefination, Yamaguchi macrolactonization, and selective

Rh-bound trimethylenemethane variants generated from the interaction of a Rh-carbenoid with an allene have been applied to the synthesis of substituted 3,4-fused pyrroles. The pyrrole products are useful starting points for the syntheses of various dipyrromethene ligands. Furthermore, the methodology has been applied to a synthesis of the natural product cycloprodigiosin, which demonstrates antitumor and immunosuppressor activity.

A stereocontrolled synthesis of C(1)-C(18) fragment of tautomycin is accomplished employing asymmetric crotylboration, selective reduction of spiroketal, and addition of crotylstannane as the key steps.
