New and efficient enantiospecific synthesis of (-)-methyl 5-epi-shikimate and methyl 5-epi-quinate from (-)-quinic acid

(-)-Methyl 5-epi-shikimate and methyl 5-epi-quinate were synthesized efficiently from readily available and inexpensive (-)quinic acid 1 as a common starting material on a new, short and simple sequence of reactions.
