## Abstract The synthesis of sarcinaxanthin ((__2R,6R,2′R,6′R__)‐1), a symmetrical C~50~‐carotenoid with two γ‐end groups, isolated from __Sarcina lutea__ and from __Cellulomonas biazotea__ as major pigment, was based on the strategy C~20~ + C~10~ + C~20~ = C~50~ using camphoric acid as starting ma

Abstract
Optically active (all‐E,2__R__,2′R)‐oscillol (= (all‐E,2__R__,2′R)‐3,4,3′,4′‐tetradehydro‐1,2,1′,2′‐tetrahydro‐ψ,ψ‐carotene‐1,2,1′,2′‐tetrol; 1) was synthesized according to the C~10~ + C~20~ + C~10~ = C~40~ strategy, applying the Wittig reaction to couple the synthons 4 and 6. The chiral centre was introduced by a Sharpless dihydroxylation of 3‐methylbut‐2‐enyl 4‐nitrobenzoate (8).
