Further Contributions to the Synthesis of (+)‐Aspicilin There are two reasons to try to find out. whether the initial and final parts of the ‘photochemical synthesis’ of the 18‐membered lichen macrolide (+)‐aspicilin (5a) can be improved (cf. Schemes 1 and 2). This synthesis acts as an indicator for the utility of the earlier introduced photolactonization and as a source of large‐ring‐sized lactones, objects for computer‐assisted conformational analysis.
