First total synthesis and stereochemical revision of laxaphycin B and its extension to lyngbyacyclamide A.
Résumé
The first total synthesis of laxaphycin B was accomplished through stepwise automated Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis (SPPS), leading to the structural revision of its stereochemistry especially with regard to the configuration of one of the two 3-hydroxyleucines of this cyclic dodecapeptide of marine origin. The analogous Lyngbyacyclamide A was obtained by an extension of this synthesis.
