GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT
The efficient synthesis of new macrocyclic systems via nucleophilic ring opening reaction of epoxides by thiols was described. Initially new macrocyclic compounds were obtained as a mixture of diastereomers. Preparative thin layer chromatography was applied to separate meso and pairs of enantiomer. The identification of products using a chiral HPLC column and mass spectroscopy was utilized.
