Ever since the first isolation of Exaltolide 1 (Figure 1) in 1927 by Kerschbaum, 1 interest in
macrocyclic lactones, defined as lactones with more than 8 atoms in the ring, has been …

The aldol reaction is one of the most important methods for the stereoselective construction
of polyketide natural products, not only for nature but also for synthetic chemistry. The …

Marine organisms, particularly sponge invertebrates and associated bacteria, are
enormously rich sources of structurally diverse secondary metabolites with unique molecular …

1. INTRODUCTION Ever since the first isolation of Exaltolide 1 (Figure 1) in 1927 by
Kerschbaum, 1 interest in macrocyclic lactones, defined as lactones with more than 8 atoms …

The main recent conceptual advances in asymmetric aldol reactions are presented. Methods
ranging from stoichiometric chiral auxiliary‐mediated to direct, catalytic reactions are …

The synthesis of phorboxazole B has been accomplished in 27 linear steps and an overall
yield of 12.6%. The absolute stereochemistry of the C4− C12, C33− C38, and C13− C19 …

In less than the last two decades a fundamentally new role of carbohydrates in living
organisms1 has emerged: conjugates of oligosaccharides with proteins or lipids proved to …

Marine organisms produce a fascinating range of structurally diverse secondary metabolites,
which often possess unusual and sometimes unexpected biological activities. This structural …

Two complex norditerpenoids, caribenols A and B, were accessed from a common building
block. Our synthesis of caribenol A features the diastereoselective formation of the seven …
