Communication 7. Preparation of macrocyclic ketolactones by intramolecular acylation

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Division of chemical science Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    A new method for the synthesis of macrocyclic ketolactones containing a thiophene ring has been developed.

  2. 2.

    The reductive desulfuration of macrocyclic ketolactones containing a thiophene ring has given ketoalkanolides, in particular that with a 14-membered ring the structure of which is close to that of the cyclic fragment of the natural macrolide antibiotics.
