19 Conclusion Arguably, a case of: Target-driven synthesis (verman) vs. thodology-driven synthesis (Qin) Regardless, each group accessed very similar advanced intermediates completely independent of one another-- the chemistry guides them! Combine end game strategies of each group to maximize efficiency of synthesis: (verman protecting groups and Pd-vinylation conditions with Qin stille coupling) Adam Wipf Group Page 19 of 19 6/15/2008
