Part I Towards a total synthesis of papulacandin D Part II Towards a total synthesis of amphidinolide X

Abstract

Dr Tan Howe Siang had been instrumental in helping me acquire skills in computational chemistry and molecular modelling which stands me in good stead for my future research. I am also very grateful to Dr Chua Guan Leong for his friendship, advice and access to work in his remarkably well-maintained and safe laboratory.
