Enantioselective synthesis of aspergillide B.
The enantioselective synthesis of aspergillide B, a 14-membered macrocyclic cytotoxin, was achieved in a 49% yield via 7 steps from a synthetic intermediate of aspergillide C. The spectroscopic data and specific rotation value for the synthetic material matched those of natural aspergillide B.
