Starting with methyl (3R)-3-hydroxybutanoate ((R)-7) and ethyl (3S)-3-hydroxybutanoate ((S)-11), respectively, (R)- and (S)-lavandulol ((R)-1 and (S)-1) were synthesized with high optical purity.The synthesized key intermediates (R)-6 and (S)-6 are suitable compounds for the synthesis of optically active acyclic C45- and C50-carotenoids.
