Abstract

The protecting-group-free synthesis of (±)-methoxyfumimycin ethyl ester, a potential bacterial peptide deformylase (PDF) inhibitor, is reported. The synthetic approach features a tandem Friedel-Crafts alkylation/lactonisation access as a key reaction to generate a, a-disubstituted amino acid unit. © 2014 Publishing Technology.
