A short enantioselective Synthesis of the biologically important myo- inositol derivative I and the pyrrolidine derivative II is described. The molecule 3, a diketo disulfoxide readily made from tartaric acid, is the key intermediate. The sulfinyl group controlled completely the very high stereoselection observed.
