The preparation of an advanced intermediate on route towards the synthesis of tedanolide C is reported here. It is based on the coupling of two fragments of similar size and complexity, which in turn are prepared by highly stereoselective substrate-controlled titanium-mediated aldol reactions from chiral ketones.
