✦ Synopsis
On treatment with 10% HF, butenolides 4a and 4b afforded enantiopure (-)-syringolides 1 (la) and 2 (lb) respectively in much higher yields. Unprecedentedly, the cyclic acetal 5a was also converted to la by reacting with an excess of p-TsOH. The structure of the ~ynthetic (-)-syringolide 1 (la) was substantiated by an X-ray crystallographic study.
