title: A concise route to the proposed structure of lydiamycin B, an antimycobacterial depsipeptide.
abstract: The total synthesis of four possible isomers with the proposed structure of antimycobacterial depsipeptide lydiamycin B is achieved. None of them shows identical NMR data with those reported for natural lydiamycin B, indicating that further structural revisions are required.
