Abstract
The pseudo C~2~โsymmetrical diketone 22 was efficiently constructed from furanโ3,4โdimethanol (7) using a twoโdirectional route featuring a double asymmetric dihydroxylation. Acidic hydrolysis of the cyclopentylidene acetals of 22 triggered a selective cyclization of the resulting hexaol diketone to generate the 2,8โdioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane core of the zaragozic acids/squalestatins. Chemoselective oxidative cleavage of a superfluous twoโcarbon appendage and further functional group manipulations yielded the enantiomerically pure triester 30, which offers itself as a general heterobicyclic building block for naturally occurring zaragozic acids/squalestatins and unnatural analogues.
