Graphical Abstract

A collective total synthesis of 11- deoxylandomycins is reported using Pd-catalyzed asymmetric hydroalkoxylation of alkoxyallene as the key strategy. This de novo approach allowed for an access to various natural and non-natural congeners of 11-deoxylandomycins.

Abstract

A de novo first collective total synthesis of 11-deoxylandomycins is reported. A signature step is featured by the Pd-catalyzed asymmetric addition of alcohol to ene-alkoxyallenes that assembles oligomeric 2,3,6-trideoxyoligosaccharides. The unique feature of the protocol is illustrated by a flexible access to various natural 11-deoxylandomycins as well as non-natural analogues.
