This study discloses an efficient synthetic route for the regiospecific construction of a C5 glycoside angucycline representative of mayamycin. The key steps are intramolecular aldol condensation and Hauser annulation, and the key precursor for the aldol reaction is accessible through utilization of α-lithiation of a vinyl ether.
