This compound is an analogue of 3,4-dihydroxy-2,4,6,8-tetramethyldec- 8-enolide (4) which is a rare 11-membered lactone produced by the fungus, Botrytis cinerea. Mutasynthetic studies with compound 5 using two mutants of B. cinerea led to the isolation of four new highly oxygenated 11-membered lactones (11–14) in which compound 5 has been stereoselectively epoxidized and hydroxylated at sites that were not easily accessible by classical synthetic chemistry.}, publisher = {The Royal Society of Chemistry}, title = {Exploring mutasynthesis to increase structural diversity in the synthesis of highly oxygenated polyketide lactones}, doi = {10.1039/c4ob00717d}, author = {Botubol Ares, José Manuel and Durán Peña, María Jesús and Macías Sánchez, Antonio José and Hanson, J.
