Abstract

The synthesis of five diastereomeric model compounds incorporating the C32-C46 segment of the antitumor marine natural product hemicalide has been achieved through a convergent approach relying on the 1,4-addition of an alkenyl boronate to an alpha,beta-unsaturated delta-lactone followed by alpha- hydroxylation of an enolate and a Julia-Kocienski olefination. Comparison of the H-1 and C-13 NMR data of the model compounds with those of hemicalide enabled the assignment of the relative configuration of the C36-C42 subunit.
