Feigrisolide C: structural revision and synthesis.

[Carbohydrate structure: see text] The original macrodiolide structure proposed for feigrisolide C was incorrect. The true structure of feigrisolide C was identified as (2'S,3'S,6'R,8'R)-homononactoyl (2R,3R,6S,8S)-nonactic acid, which was confirmed by total synthesis.

Synthesis of the proposed structure of feigrisolide C.

[reaction: see text] Possible structures of feigrisolide C were synthesized via ring-closing olefin metathesis reaction of a diester derivative prepared from 8-epi-nonactic acid, but physical characteristics of the synthetic samples did not match with those of the natural sample of feigrisolide C.
