All-cis pentamethanolcyclopentane has been obtained in six steps by Diels-Alder condensation of maleic anhydride with (benzyloxymethyl)cyclopenta-2, 4-diene, reduction of the anhydride to a diol that was protected as the acetonide. Then, ozonolysis of the double bond, followed by reduction led to a cis-diol. Then successive deprotections of the three other methanol groups gave the cis,cis,cis,cis-1,2,3,4,5-pentakis(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentane.
