Abstract
Polyfunctionalised lactones with up to five contiguous stereocentres may be prepared with high stereocontrol by a double diastereoselective aldol protocol with protected homochiral α,β-dihydroxy- or α,β-γ-trihydroxyaldehydes and a chiral glycolate oxazolidinone, followed by subsequent O-desilylation and lactonisation.
