Abstract

Symmetry helps: The total synthesis of the potent actin-targeting C 2-symmetric myxobacterial macrolide rhizopodin (see scheme) is accomplished by the convergent assembly of three building blocks of similar complexity, a concise macrocyclization strategy, and a late-stage introduction of the labile side chains.
