Tetrahydropyrans are common motifs in natural products and have now been constructed with high stereocontrol through a three-component allylboration-Prins reaction sequence. This methodology has been applied to a concise (13 steps) and efficient (14 % overall yield) synthesis of the macrolide (-)-clavosolide A. The synthesis also features an early stage glycosidation reaction to introduce the xylose moiety and a lithiation-borylation reaction to attach the cyclopropyl-containing side chain. ...[more]
