The C11-C22 and C23-C35 segments 2 and 3 of reidispongiolide A (1), an actin-depolymerizing marine macrolide, were synthesized enantioselectively in 12 steps from (R)-glycidyl trityl ether and in 12 steps from chiral ketone 15, respectively.

The first total synthesis of a spongipyran macrolide, altohytrin C, is described. The convergent synthesis strategy relies on a regioselective macrolactonization, a stereoselective Wittig coupling of the two major synthetic fragments, a complex anti aldol reaction to join the C1-C15 and C16-C28 spiroketal regions, and an anomeric sulfone acylation to join the C29-C37 and C38-C43 pyran regions. The incorporation of the C44- C51 sidechain in the final stages of the synthesis establishes a viable route for the construction of variants in this pharmacologically important region. Methodological developments en route to the total synthesis include a 1,5 antiselective methyl ketone aldol reaction and a diastereoselective approach to Lewis acid mediated β-C-glycosidation. Completion of the synthesis has confirmed the stereochemical assignments proposed in the altohyrtin series and has established the identity of the altohyrtin and spongistatin marine macrolides.
