Abstract
The synthesis of myrislignan (VI) is achieved in twelve steps from vanillin (I) with a total yield of 10% involving two key steps: preparation of the enantiopure threo alcohol (III) of predictable stereochemistry by dihydroxylation, and inversion of the absolute configuration at the C‐8 stereogenic center in (IV) to obtain the title compound with erythro configuration by a Mitsunobu reaction.
