β¦ Synopsis
We report here a short approach to a tricyclic substructure of tetrodecamycin exhibiting a unique ring skeleton utilising an acid catalysed ring closure as the key step. In addition an efficient three-step synthesis of 5-alkylidene 4-methoxy-2(5H)-furanones starting from 4-methoxy-2(5H)-furanone is described.

We report the asymmetric synthesis of a direct precursor of the C6 C18 trans-decalin portion of tetrodecamycin utilising an asymmetric intramolecular Diels-Alder (IMDA) reaction as the key step.
The carboxylic acid antibiotic A-23187 (A) is a divalent cation ionophore which has been isolated from cultures of Streptomyces chartreusensis.' The structure and proposed absolute configuration2 have shown it to be one of a limited group of natural products, including oligomycin B3 and aplysiatoxin
