Abstract
Two new syntheses of verrucarinic acid (2__S__, 3__R__‐dihydroxy‐3‐methylpentanoic acid) and its derivatives, suitably protected for the further conversion to macrocyclic trichothecenes, are described. The first one makes use of a diastereoselective alkylation of a (−)‐(S)‐malic acid ester and the regioselective reductin of one carboxyl function toa methyl group. The second approach involves a stereoselective addition of an allylsilane to a chiral glyoxylate.

## Abstract Partial decoupling experiments permitted assignment of carbon magnetic resonance spectra of verrucarins A (**1**) and B (**4**), of roridin A (**2**), D (**5**), and H (**6**), and of verrucarol (9). In this connection new verrucarol derivatives were prepared and are described.
The compound should correctly be named apotrichothec-9-ene-3a, 13-diol, because apotrichothecane is the generic name for the skeleton [4]. We thank Dr. Ruegger, Specfrospin, Fallanden and Prof. H . Fritz, Ciba-Geipy AG, Basel, for recording the spectra and the helpful discussion.
