✦ Synopsis
A short and general synthesis of enantiomerically pure a-hydroxylated lactone lignans starting from commercially available i Pr malate is presented. Key reactions are two stereoselective alkylations of malic acid derivatives. Some enhancements of the alkylation of malic acid esters and a general extension of the alkylation of dioxolanones is reported. Proof of the stereochemical outcome of the alkylation reactions is provided by X-ray diffraction analysis of a-hydroxy-a,b-dibenzyl-g-butyrolactone, the first crystal structure of an enantiomerically pure a-hydroxylated lactone lignan.
