Abstract
Biologically active Apoptolidin and FD-891 have structural similarity in their macrocyclic cores. Asymmetric preparation of a common intermediate in the total synthesis of these two macrolides is presented. A modified Masuyama Sn-allylation was employed to control the relative stereochemistry in the synthesis of the intermediate.
