Total synthesis of feglymycin based on a linear/convergent hybrid approach using micro-flow amide bond formation

Feglymycin is a biologically active peptide but a challenging synthetic target due to the highly racemizable nature of the 3,5-dihydroxyphenylglycine groups. Here the authors report the synthesis of feglymycin using a microflow system, allowing amide bond formation without severe racemization.
