  • Patent number: 7947850
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to practical high-yielding synthetic processes for preparing 3,4-disubstituted-thiazolidin-2-ones, which do not compromise the absolute stereochemical integrity of the compounds. The present invention is also directed to novel compounds of 3,4-disubstituted-thiazolidin-2-ones. The compounds prepared by the present invention are useful in the synthesis and manufacture of compounds (such as latrunculins and/or their analogs) for treating diseases or conditions associated with inhibiting actin polymerization.
