Versatile enantiocontrolled synthesis of (+)-fostriecin

Chem Commun (Camb). 2002 Dec 21:(24):3042-3. doi: 10.1039/b209742g.

Abstract

Fostriecin, a potent protein phosphatase inhibitor and antitumor agent, has been enantioselectively synthesized in naturally occurring form via a versatile route, which also allows one to secure all possible stereoisomeres of the C1-C13 fragment including the C11 stereocenter and the geometry of the delta 12-double bond.
