Abstract
(Chemical Presented) A modular strategy for the assembly of amphotericin B analogues with modifications in the macrolactone ring relies on the efficient gram-scale synthesis of all major and minor motifs of amphotericin B. Proof of concept has been achieved by the preparation of the 35-deoxy aglycone en route to the long-sought-after 35-deoxy analogue of amphotericin B.
