Abstract:<p>(-)-Zampanolide (1), a natural product isolated from a marine sponge, is a microtubule-stabilizing agent that exhibits activity in the nanomolar range against various cancer cells, including in P-gp pump overexpressing cells. This attribute makes (-)-zampanolide an interesting target for further investigation. In this work, a new method for a modular and convergent total synthesis of optically pure zampanolide was investigated, which would also allow the generation of “zampanalogs” following the same … Show more
