Resumo

The potent bryostatin antitumor agents are currently in phase II clinical trials for the treatment of a variety of forms of cancer. Aldol reactions and directed reductions are among the essential steps for the formation of fragments A–C in the total synthesis of the title compound. Coupling of these fragments by sulfone-based olefination and alkylation reactions was followed by macrocyclization and introduction of the enoate moieties on rings B and C.
