Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans are major causes of systemic fungal infections, particularly in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Metabolic labeling studies revealed that these organisms synthesize a small number of N-myristoylproteins, the most prominent being 20-kDa ADP-ribosylation factors (Arfs).

The unprecedented (+/-)-2-methoxy-4-oxatetradecanoic acid and the optically pure (S)-2-methoxy-4-oxatetradecanoic acid were synthesized in six steps and in 11-14% overall yields starting with either 1,2-O-isopropylidene-rac-glycerol or 1,2-O-isopropylidene-(S)-glycerol. The key step in the synthesis was the selective monosilylation of a dibutylstannylene intermediate.
