So, following in Dan's shoes from last week, and as Heory had requested, here is my attempt at a somewhat interesting problem. Hopefully it's not too easy or too challenging...
Edit: I realize the formula may be hard to see in my shrunk Chemdraw, it is: C26H31BrN2O5SSi.

As a bonus: would anyone like to name the second compound on Heory's scheme? I'll post the reference shortly, I'm just having some computer difficulties currently.

Are you looking for endo-peroxide?

It indeed was. I actually completely forgot to post the link. Thanks for the reminder :)

The paper is from 2004, a total synthesis of (-)-nakadomarin A. I found this looking over some of my old class notes. Interesting way to introduce the furan ring, I thought. The endo peroxide is formed as a 1.2:1 mixture of diastereomers. Both were taken on the the furan.

I thought you were looking for the compound's name. ;D

Heh, sorry I should have been a little more clear. I'll work on that for my next attempt at a "problem of the day/week" ;D
