title: Tetrafibricin: synthesis of the C1-C13, C15-C25, and C27-C40 fragments.
abstract: [structure: see text] A sequence of chemoselective cross-metathesis reactions and enantioselective allyltitanations of aldehydes has been used to prepare the C1-C13, C15-C26, and C27-C40 fragments of tetrafibricin.
