Russian Journal of Organic Chemistry Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The total synthesis of epothilone D with six-fold application in the intermediate stages of successive cyclopropanation — opening or cleavage of the three-membered ring was performed. These transformations underlie the new stereoselective method developed for coupling fragments C7–C12 and C13–C21 in the target molecule.
