title: One-pot multistep Bohlmann-Rahtz heteroannulation reactions: synthesis of dimethyl sulfomycinamate.
abstract: [reaction: see text] The synthesis of dimethyl sulfomycinamate, the acidic methanolysis product of the sulfomycin family of thiopeptide antibiotics, from methyl 2-oxo-4-(trimethylsilyl)but-3-ynoate is achieved in a 2,3,6-trisubstituted pyridine synthesis that proceeds with total regiocontrol in 13 steps by the Bohlmann-Rahtz heteroannulation of a 1-(oxazol-4-yl)enamine or in 12 steps and 9% yield by three-component cyclocondensation with N-[3-oxo-3-(oxazol-4-yl)propanoyl]serine and ammonia in ethanol.
