Abstract
Addition of the racemic γ-alkoxy allylic stannane 13, in three-fold excess, to the tartrate-derived aldehyde 9 in the presence of MgBr2 afforded ester 14 and lactones 15 and 16 as a separable 1.2:1.4:1 mixture in 90% yield. The mixture of 14 and 15 was converted to the bengamide E precursor 21upon treatment with (S)-α-aminocaprolactam and Me3Al.
