A short and efficient enantioselective synthesis of (R)-(-)-baclofen, a selective GABA B agonist has been described with an overall yield of 26% and 90% ee. Ru(II)-(S)-BINAP catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenations of C C and C O groups constitute the key steps in introducing stereogenic centers into the
## Abstract Enantioselective syntheses of several paraconic acids have been achieved using catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of β‐keto esters with SYNPHOS^®^ as a ligand. This strategy allowed the short synthesis of biologically active (−)‐methylenolactocin **1**, (−)‐protolichesterinic acid **2**
