Abstract

Polyketides have long provided synthetic organic chemists with a variety of complex architectures to construct and develop new chemical tools for, and provided medicine with, many useful drugs. About 1% of polyketides display drug activity, which is five times the average for natural products.[1] A common strategy in the synthesis of polyketides is the cross-aldol reaction, although it can be complicated by uncontrolled oligomerization and ...
