Abstract

This paper describes the synthesis of the C19–C39 fragment of the antimalarial natural product bastimolide A via addition of a functionalized C19–C26 alkyne fragment to a C27–C39 aldehyde fragment. Opening of a terminal epoxide and Noyori asymmetric reduction were used as key steps in the synthesis.
