title: Stereoselective synthesis of five biologically active, naturally occurring medium and large ring lactones.
abstract: Stereoselective syntheses of five naturally occurring, pharmacologically active medium and large ring lactones are described. Key synthetic methods used were, depending on the cases, olefin metatheses, asymmetric allylations and C-glycosidations.
