Revision of stereochemical assignments of (2,2-dimethyl-5-phenyl-[1,3] dioxolan-4-yl)-methanol

Opposite signs of specific rotation are reported in the literature for (4S,5S)-(2,2-dimethyl-5-phenyl-[1,3]dioxolan-4-yl)-methanol. The correct assignment was made by unambiguous synthesis of the title compound via the reaction of (S)-O-TBS-mandelic aldeh
