The asymmetric synthesis of sphingofungin F has been achieved and its stereochemistry has been determined. Its structure, including the absolute configuration of the chiral centers, was found to be similar to that of sphingofungin B or myriocin. The synthesis is based on the catalytic asymmetric aldol reaction, and efficient enantioselective synthesis using a small amount of a chiral source as well as the effectiveness of our synthetic strategy for the sphingofungin family has been successfully demonstrated.
