Stereoselective synthesis of an advanced trans-decalin intermediate towards the total synthesis of anthracimycin† Progress towards the total synthesis of the macrolide natural product anthracimycin is described. This new approach utilises an intermolecular Diels–Alder strategy followed by epimeirsation to form the key trans-decalin framework.

Popular Summary Quantum key distribution (QKD) enables two remote parties to establish a shared secret key even in the presence of an eavesdropper that has access to a quantum computer. The obtained key then can be used to encrypt secret messages. Continuous-variable QKD (CV-QKD) protocols with discrete modulation (DM) are promising candidates for commercial implementations because the required components are already used in current telecommunications infrastructure.
