4-O-Protected (4R,6S)-4-hydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydropyran-2-ones (3) derived from enantiomerically pure (3R,5S)-3-hydroxy-5,6-(isopropylidenedioxy) hexanoates (2) are frequently considered as pivotal intermediates for the synthesis of pharmacologic
Methyl (3R)-3-Hydroxyhex-5-enoate as a Precursor to Chiral Mevinic Acid Analogues

Baker's yeast reduction of methyl 3-oxohex-5-enoate 14b provides methyl (3R)-3-hydroxyhex-5-enoate 15b with 78percent enantiomeric enrichment.Subsequent seleno- and iodo-lactonization of derived hex-5-enoic acids leads to valerolactones 18, 19, 25 and 26 which are suitable for the subsequent elaboration of a variety of mevinic acid analogues.The absolute configuration of the major enantiomer produced in the initial yeast reduction was determined by correlation with natural (S)-(+)-parasorbic acid 23.
SYNTHESES OF 4(R)-SILYLOXY-6(S)-IODOMETHYL-TETRAHYDROPYRAN-2-ONE AND ITS ENANTIOMER, BUILDING BLOCKS FOR HMG-COA REDUCTASE INHIBITORS

Optically pure 4(R),6(S)-iodolactone 1 was obtained from α-D-(+)-glucose in 17 steps with 17percent overall yield.Its enantiomer 4(S),6(R)-iodolactone 1' was obtained from acetonedicarboxylic acid in 9 steps in 37percent overall yield and with 70percent e
CHIRAL SYNTHONS FOR THE ELABORATION OF MEVINIC ACID ANALOGUES

Baker's yeast reduction of methyl 3-oxo-5-hexenoate (6b) affords the (R)-hydroxy-ester (7b) (76percent ee) wich is converted into the lactones (15) and epoxy-ester (19), synthons of the lactone part of the mevinic acids.
