The syn-homoallyl alcohol 2a has been prepared with absolute stereoselectivity following PDC oxidation of the mixture of diastereomers 2a, 2b and subsequent K-selectride reduction of the resulting ketone 3. Compound 2a has been efficiently utilized for a simple synthesis of AZT I in a convergent manner.
