Highly stereoselective: A highly efficient, stereoselective and practical synthesis of the C21-C37 fragment of amphotericinB was realized in 25% overall yield in eight longest linear steps from commercially available ethyl (S)-3-hydroxybutyrate by using Frter-Seebach alkylation, Brown crotylboration, Negishi coupling, Heck reaction, and Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons (HWE) olefination as key steps (see diagram).
