TL;DR: The C24-C32 segment 4 of swinholide A (1) was stereoselectively synthesized starting from (S)-methyl 3-hydroxybutyrate as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: The C24-C32 segment 4 of swinholide A (1) was stereoselectively synthesized starting from (S)-methyl 3-hydroxybutyrate, and the convergent synthesis of the C11-C32 segment 5 was accomplished via stereoselective aldol condensation of 3 and 4

TL;DR: Esterification of a variety of acid bromides having even steric bulkiness with t-BuOH/activated basic alumina gave the corresponding t-butyl esters in good to excellent yields.
Abstract: Esterification of a variety of acid bromides having even steric bulkiness with t-BuOH/activated basic alumina gave the corresponding t-butyl esters in good to excellent yields. In the case of chiral acid bromides, no racemization has been ascertained for the first time.
