Access to Skipped Polyene Macrolides Through Ring-closing Metathesis: Total Synthesis of the RNA Polymerase Inhibitor Ripostatin B
Overview
Affiliations
Rip-Roaring! A convergent total synthesis of antibiotic ripostatin B was developed. A key step in the synthesis is a metathesis reaction allowing for a ring closure to the labile doubly skipped triene macrolide.
