Abstract
The heptapropionates 5 and 20 were synthesised by iterative applicatio n of the boron-mediated aldol reaction of ethyl ketone (R)-4 and subse quent reduction. Polyketide library diversification was realised by va rying the ketone configuration and substitution in the aldol bond cons tructions. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
