Abstract
AbstractA synthetic strategy based on the application of three consecutive ring-expansion reactions has been used in the synthesis of analogues of the macrocyclic core of the solomonamide natural products. Starting from a simple, readily available tetrahydrocarbazole, oxidative ring expansion is followed by two further 3- and 4-atom ring-expansion reactions, enabling the insertion of amino acid and hydroxy acid derived linear fragments into 15- to 17-membered-ring-enlarged macrocyclic products.
