A high-yielding total synthesis of daptomycin, an important clinical antibiotic, is described. Key to the development of this synthesis was the elucidation of a Camps cyclization reaction that occurs in the solid-phase when conventionally used kynurenine (Kyn) synthons, such as Fmoc-l-Kyn(Boc,CHO)-OH and Fmoc-l-Kyn(CHO,CHO)-OH, are exposed to 20% 2-methylpiperidine (2MP)/DMF. During the synthesis of daptomycin, this side reaction was accompanied by intractable peptide decomposition, which resulted in a low yield of
