! Highly Optimized Suzuki Coupling Conditions
undesired double addition product
The coupling was sensitive to the choice of base:
(1) strong bases (i.e. hydroxides, oxides) or less halophilic cations resulted in slower rates and competitive decomposition of SM via protodeborylation, oxidation, elimination, etc.
(2) silver bases completely decomposed products'
(3) carbonates had the best selectivity and only Tl2CO3 gave good reaction at rt

endo TS I
endo TS II
For each macrocycle, five energy-minimized geometries were obtained and two energy curves were generated plotting the increasing energy penalty for !-face alignment of the approaching TS ( I and II).
Nine simplified macrocycles (varied at C18 and C19) were energy-minimized (PM3) with distance
constraints (of 2.9-2.1 Å) leading to the observed natural product (via
endo TS I) or it's endo diastereomer (via endo TS II).

! Demonstrated the gram scale synthesis of the natural enantiomer (–)-FR182877
Limitation of this synthesis was the undesired Z-isomer in the selenium-based desaturation
60g of dienyl stannane and 47g the allylic acetate were used to synthesize 3.2g of the natural product
