Abstract

Aminoglycoside 66-40C, an unprecedented 16-membered bis-azadiene macrocyclic natural product isolated from the Micromonospora producer of the antibiotic sisomicin, was synthesized following a biomimetic strategy which definitively established its origin as arising from a remarkably selective non-enzymatic macro-dimerization.
