Abstract
The first synthesis of the acyl side-chain segment of polyoxypeptin, a pote nt inducer of apoptosis in human pancreatic carcinoma AsPC-1, was accomplis hed. The key feature of the present synthesis is the stereospecific palladi um-catalyzed hydrogenolysis of (Z)-alkenyloxirane to anti-hydroxyalkenoate by an improved method. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
