Crotylsilane Reagents in the Synthesis of Complex Polyketide Natural Products: Total Synthesis of (+)-Discodermolide

TL;DR: An efficient, highly convergent stereocontrolled synthesis of (+)-discodermolide has been achieved with 2.1% overall yield (27 steps longest linear sequence) using asymmetric crotylation methodology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stereoselective synthesis of functionalized trisubstituted olefins via palladium(0)-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction.

TL;DR: A highly flexible and stereoselective protocol for the synthesis of branched (E)- and (Z)-trisubstituted alkenes has been developed and the key steps are hydrozirconation-iodination of (1-alkynyl)trimethylsilane followed by Negishi-type cross-coupling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Studies directed toward the total synthesis of discodermolide: asymmetric synthesis of the C1-C14 fragment.

TL;DR: A convergent and stereoselective assembly of the C1-C14 subunit of marine natural product (+)-discodermolide has been completed and the approach employs chiral allylsilane bond construction methodology to establish four of the eight stereogenic centers.
