Abstract

The C1-C7 and C9-C14 subunits of (+)-discodermolide have been synthesized using ruthenium-SYNPHOS-mediated asymmetric hydrogenation reactions of β-keto esters to set the C3, C5 and C11 hydroxy-bearing stereocenters with very high levels of diastereoselectivity.

Key words

asymmetric catalysis - hydrogenation - ruthenium - total synthesis - natural products
