When life gives you lemons: An efficient and convergent enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-lemonomycin, which shows potent activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREF), is presented. The key reaction steps are a Hosomi-Sakurai-type cyclization, a thermodynamically controlled Pictet-Spengler reaction, and a glycosidation reaction with lemonose (see scheme). Copyright
