The total synthesis of FR901483, a structurally novel immunosuppressant, has been accomplished by the use of technology recently developed in this laboratory for the oxidative cyclization of phenolic oxazolines to spirolactams. Our approach may reflect th

A solution to the long-standing problem presented by the oxidative cyclization of a phenolic 3-arylpropionamide to a spirolactam has been developed in this laboratory via oxazoline chemistry. This research was motivated by our interest in some novel tricyclic azaspirane natural products formally derived from tyrosine, such as FR901483 and TAN1251C. In this paper, we disclose full details of the total synthesis of these substances.
