A convergent approach to swinholide A. Stereoselective construction of the C3–C17fragment of swinholide A

Abstract
A strategy for a total synthesis of the cytotoxic dimeric macrolide swinholide A (1, Scheme 1) is outlined and a stereoselective construction of the suitably functionalized C3–C17 fragment 4, starting with building blocks 6, 7, 9 and 10 is described.
