AI Article Synopsis

  • The article details the total synthesis of stevastelin B, a new 15-membered cyclic depsipeptide.
  • The fatty acid part was obtained stereoselectively from L-quebrachitol and transformed into an amino carboxylic acid.
  • The cyclic structure was created using Shioiri's method for macrolactamization.

Article Abstract

The total synthesis and an unambiguous structure confirmation of stevastelin B 1, a novel 15-membered cyclic depsipeptide, are described; the fatty acid moiety in 1, prepared stereoselectively from L-quebrachitol was converted into the amino carboxylic acid, whose macrolactamization by Shioiri's procedure effectively constructed the cyclic structure of 1.
