Abstract

The first synthesis of the macrocyclic natural product xestodecalactone A, a metabolite of a sponge-derived fungus, is described. By the use of methyl 5-hydroxyhexanoate in its R-or S- configured form, or as its racemate as the precursors, both enantiomers of xestodecalactone A as well as the racemic compound were obtained. Comparison of these synthetic products with the natural product by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and by HPLC on a chiral ...
