Significance
The total synthesis of (-)-CP55,940 demonstrates the use of an asymmetric intramolecular aldol reaction/retro-aldol reaction strategy to install two of the three stereocenters present in the target molecule. The initial aldol adduct C is used as a temporary chiral scaffold to allow installation of these stereocenters using substrate control.
