The total synthesis of (+)-aspicilin using 2,3-butane diacetal protected butane tetrols via a chiral memory protocol

The total syntheses of the polyhydroxylated macrolactone (+)-aspicilin and a diastereoisomer have been achieved via a concise route, starting from the spatially desymmetrized (R′,R′,R,S)-2,3-butanediacetal-protected butane tetrol 13. The key steps include a regioselective silyl protection of 13 and...
