Diastereoselective synthesis of (2S*,3R*)- and (2R*,3R*)-2,2-dialkylchroman-3-ols was achieved by stereoselective epoxide-opening cyclization of ortho-(2,3-epoxyalkyl)phenols which were prepared by the coupling of p-cresol and (2R*,3R*)- and (2R*,3S*)-2,3-diacetoxyalkyl isopropyl sulfides, which were in turn derived from geraniol and nerol, respectively.
