A concise synthesis of Hagen's gland lactones 3-6 by a chiron approach starting from D-mannose is described. Transformation of o-mannose to dihydroxy-vinylfuran 8 followed by Pd(II)Cl2 mediated oxidative cyclisation to obtain the tetrahydrofurofuran diol 7 constituted the key reaction in the total synthesis of 3-6.
