Furthermore D and F which are key intermediates for the synthesis of Kosotoxin analogues,. and! and Q which are supposed to be kosotoxin analogues have also been synthesized. In addition the chemistry of unsymmetrical condensa~ tion of acylated poly hydroxy compounds has been studiedenAttempts to synthesize KosotoxinAttempts towards the synthesis of Kosotoxin and AnaloguesThesis
