Novel stereodivergent total syntheses of all the seven stereoisomers of (?)-shikimic acid [(?)-SA 1] have been systematically performed. (+)-ent-SA ent-1 was synthesized from (?)-SA 1 via 9 steps in 31 % overall yield; (?)-3-epi-SA 2 was synthesized from (?)-SA 1 via 5 steps in 66 % overall yield; (+)-3-epi-ent-SA ent-2 was synthesized from (?)-SA 1 via 7 steps in 43 % overall yield; (?)-4-epi-SA 3 was synthesized from (?)-SA 1 via 11 steps in 32 % overall yield; (+)-4-epi-ent-SA ent-3 was synthesized from (?)-SA 1 via 7 steps in 42 % overall yield; (?)-5-epi-SA 4 was synthesized from (?)-SA 1 via 6 steps in 56 % overall yield; and (+)-5-epi-ent-SA ent-4 was synthesized from (?)-SA 1 via 12 steps in 29 % overall yield. The stereochemistry of all the above seven stereoisomers of (?)-SA 1 were further studied by two dimensional (2D) 1H NMR technique.

Via combination of a novel acid-promoted rearrangement of acetal functionality with the controlled installation of the epoxide unit to create the pivotal epoxide intermediates in enantiomerically pure form, a simple, concise, flexible, and readily scalable enantiodivergent synthesis of (+)- and (-)-shikimic acids and (+)- and (-)-4-epi-shikimic acids has emerged. This simple strategy not only provides an efficient approach to shikimic acids but also can readily be adopted for the synthesis of (+)- and (-)-pinitols. These concise total syntheses exemplify the use of pivotal allylic epoxide 14 and its enantiomer ent-14. A readily available inexpensive C2-symmetric l-tartaric acid (7) served as key precursor. In general, the strategy here provides a neat example of the use of a four-carbon chiron and offers a good account of the synthesis of functionalized cyclohexane targets.

Oxabicycloheptenes 1 and 2 are converted to 3,4,5-oxigenated cyclohexenes by stereocontrolled hydroxylations and epoxidations coupled with reverse-Michael cleavage of the oxabicyclo system.Three epimers of shikimic acid are synthesized by these methods.
