To identify novel antitrypanosomal agents based on Janadolide, a potent macrocyclic polyketide-peptide hybrid, a macrolactonization strategy was explored. We prepared des- tert -butyl Janadolide and evaluated its antitrypanosomal activity. Our findings suggest that the tert -butyl group is necessary for the desired bioactivity.
