The enantioselective synthesis of α- and γ-tocopherol (the most biologically active members of vitamin E family) and analogues has been accomplished employing a new enantioselective gold catalyzed intramolecular allylic alkylation reaction followed by an olefin cross-metathesis as key steps. The methodology proved to be applicable to different olefins highlighting its potential for the synthesis of diverse libraries. The enantioselective synthesis of α- and γ-tocopherol (the most biologically active members of vitamin E family) and analogues has been accomplished employing an enantioselective gold-catalyzed intramolecular allylic alkylation reaction followed by an olefin cross-metathesis as key steps (see scheme).

Optically active vinylchroman (1) was synthesized from a corresponding allyl carbonate (2) by catalytic and asymmetric allylic substitution with palladium complexes of chiral bisphosphine ligands. The reactivity and selectivity of the various chiral bisph
