Abstract

AbstractEnantioselective synthesis of Hagen's gland lactone is described. The enantiomerically enriched diol was prepared by organocatalytic α‐oxidation of the aldehyde. The other key reactions involved a highly diastereoselective intramolecular cyclopropanation of vinylogous carbonates to furnish donor–acceptor‐substituted cyclopropanes and their ring opening and iodolactonization followed by reduction.
