The asymmetric synthesis of a fragment corresponding to the C1-C8 region of the immunosuppressant discodermolide is reported.A trihydroxylactone of defined absolute stereochemistry is also prepared.This compound is a potential reductive ozonolysis product of discodermolide and may aid the determination of the absolute stereochemistry of the natural product.
