We have elucidated the complete absolute configuration of callyspongiolide and unambiguously assigned its stereochemistry at the C-21 center through synthesis. Four stereoisomers of callyspongiolide were synthesized in a convergent and enantioselective manner. A late-stage Sonogashira coupling forges the diene-ynic side chain. Other notable reactions are Yonemitsu's variation of Yamaguchi macrolactonization to cyclize an alkynic seco acid, highly trans-selective Julia-Kocienski olefination, CBS ...[more]
