An accelerated and improved asymmetric synthesis of malyngamide U (1) and its 2'-epimer (2'-epi-1) was accomplished from readily available n-hexanal, ethanolamine and (R)-(-)-carvone. The key steps involved a Johnson-Claisen rearrangement in the synthesis of an unsaturated carboxylic acid 4 and an aldol reaction in the construction of the skeleton of I and 2'-epi-1. There are 13 steps in the synthesis, with a 2.7% overall yield for 1 and a 0.4% yield for 2'-epi-1.
