Abstract:
In this paper are presented the results of the preliminary studies conducted on two model substrates that allowed the testing of various strategies and set the proper conditions that thereafter culminated in the synthesis of the C1-C23 chain of enacyloxin-IIa and its congeners. Innovative strategic options were explored on each model allowing the stereochemical control of the following two elements: (a) the 2E, 4E, 6E, 8E, and 10Z chlorinated undecapentaenoic chain, thanks to Z-selective Kaneda's alkyne allylchlorination and an E-selective Pd/Cu allene-alkyne coupling and (b) the unusual syn-anti -OH/-Cl/-OCONH2 C17-C19 triad, thanks to a highly diastereoselective Mukaiyama aldol reaction.

Epoxides result from alkene oxidation, which can be achieved by a) air, b) peroxy acids, c) hypochlorous acids, and d) halohydrin cyclization.
Epoxidation with Peroxy Acids
Epoxidation of alkenes via oxidation with peroxy acids involves the conversion of a carbon–carbon double bond to an epoxide using the oxidizing agent meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid, commonly known as MCPBA. Since the O–O bond of peroxy acids is very weak, the addition of electrophilic oxygen of...

Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...
