Aldol condensation of the bistrimethylsilyl enol ether of methyl acetoacetate, compound 2, with 2-benzyloxyhexanal 3c affords highly selectively (99:1) the syn-aldol adduct 4c in the presence of titanium tetrachloride.The stereocontrolled synthesis of (-)-pestalotin 7 has been achieved.

(±)-Pestalotin was synthesized by employing a stereoselective reduction of a 5-alkyltetronate derivative and a two-carbon elongation reaction of the aldehyde with ethyl diazoacetate in the presence of stannous chloride as key steps.
