The optical antipode of anhydromyriocin, the (gamma)-lactone derived from the antibiotic myriocin, was synthesized from L-arabinose. The identity of myriocin and thermozymocidin was confirmed, and their relative and absolute stereochemistries were established. In contrast to its natural enantiomer, (-)-ent-anhydromyriocin showed but little antifungal activity.
