A depsipeptidic analogue of FE399 was efficiently synthesized mainly through macrolactamization using 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoic anhydride (MNBA), and a detailed investigation of the desired 16-membered macrolactam core of FE399 was performed. It was determined that the combination of MNBA and a catalytic
