The first diastereoselective synthesis of the antimicrobial and cytotoxic agent (-)-caulerpenynol (2) was achieved in relatively few steps from, commercially available (S)-malic acid, Highlights of this synthesis include the nonracemization. of the sensitive a-hydroxy ketone moiety and the proper choice of the protecting groups for critical last deprotection step.
