	abstract = {<p>Schulzeines B (2) and C (3) were synthesized by a convergent strategy using epimeric tricyclic lactam building blocks, 4 and 5, and the C28 fatty acid side chain 6. Syntheses of tricyclic lactams (4/5) were achieved by Bischler-Napieralski reaction. Sharpless asymmetric dihy-droxylation and BINAL-H-mediated asymmetric reduction of an enone was employed to prepare the key fatty acid side chain 6. The spectral as well as analytical data of 2 and 3 were in good agreement with the reported data for the natural products, thus confirming their assigned structures.</p>},

	abstract = {<p>Penarolide sulfate A(1), with three contiguous stereogenic centers on a macrocyclic skeleton, affords promise as an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor. Herein, we describe the first asymmetric total synthesis of this natural product. A stereoselective strategy for rapid assembly of the complete framework of the 30-membered macrocyclic core is delineated herein. Sequential amidation and intramolecular Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions were pivotal to the success of our efforts. ((C) Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH \&amp; Co.
