An efficient multigram synthesis of (-)-posticlure, the first frans-epoxide sex pheromone found in Orgyia postica, from diethyl L-tartrate is described. The synthesis was completed in seven steps and 27 % overall yield. The synthetic strategy features double-Wittig olefination and a stereoselective one-pot conversion of diol to epoxide as the key steps. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2007.
