Abstract
An efficient synthesis of both the enantiomers of N-(2-phenylethyl)-8- hydroxypentadecacarboxamide using the cytotoxic principles of Telesto riisei has been formulated using cyclohexylideneglyceraldehyde 1 as the chiral template. A non- stereoselective Grignard addition to the aldehyde 1 gave the C-3 epimers of the required chiron, 3-alkylglycerol which were converted to the title compound via a standard ...
