Recently, we have assigned the (5S,3′R,9′S,10′R) stereochemistry to planar korormicin (1) on the basis of the specific rotations of the four possible diastereoisomers [i.e., (5S,3′R,9′S,10′R), (5S,3′S,9′S,10′R), (5S,3′S,9′R,10′S), and (5S,3′R,9′R,10′S) isomers], which were prepared by a total synthesis. In this article, we describe the synthetic aspects in detail. The intermediates in the synthesis are enamino lactone (5S)‐4 and both enantiomers of acid 5 and of boronate ester 7. Lactone (5S)‐4 and boronate 7 with (9′S,10′R) and (9′R,10′S) chiralities were prepared through asymmetric dihydroxylation of olefins 11 and 30, respectively, with AD‐mix‐α or ‐β. Compounds (3′R)‐ and (3′S)‐5 were prepared by kinetic resolution of rac‐19 with asymmetric epoxidation. Condensation of (5S)‐4 and (3′R)‐ or (3′S)‐5 with DCC in the presence of DMAP and PPTS furnished the advanced intermediate 6 with (5S,3′R) and (5S,3′S) chiralities in good yields. Addition of PPTS was important to prevent formation of acyl urea 24. A nickel‐catalyzed coupling reaction between 6 and 8 [prepared in situ from (9′S,10′R)‐ or (9′R,10′S)‐7 and MeLi] produced 9, which upon deprotection with Bu4NF furnished the four diastereoisomers of korormicin (1).
