title: Synthesis and stereochemistry of musacins isolated from Streptomyces griseoviridis(FH-S 1832).
abstract: Musacins E (1a), B(1)(2a) and B(2)(3a) have been synthesized starting from D-erythronolactone, L-tartaric acid and (S)-malic acid. The absolute stereochemistry of musacins was unambiguously established by this synthesis.
