Two antiglaucoma drugs, bimatoprost and latanoprost, which are analogues of the prostaglandin, PGF2?±, have been synthesized in just 7 and 8 steps, respectively. The syntheses employ an organocatalytic aldol reaction that converts succinaldehyde into a key bicyclic enal intermediate, which is primed for attachment of the required lower and upper side chains. By utilizing the crystalline lactone, the drug molecules were prepared in >99% ee.

A concise route to the asymmetric synthesis of (S)-vigabatrin and (S)-dihydrokavain has been described using Co-catalyzed hydrolytic kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides and regiospecific opening of terminal epoxides with dimethylsulfonium me
