The cyclohexenenones exo- and endo-2 were converted into the cyclohexenyl acetates exo- and endo-3 and exo- and endo-5 with a diastereoselectivity of >99:1 (2 steps). Ether cleavage with DDQ in CH2Cl2/H2O (20:1) and in situ ketal hydrolysis afforded the cyclohexenones 6 and 7 in up to 83% and 87% yield, respectively. Compound 6 was converted into (+)-allo- and (-)-proto-quercitol with a diastereoselectivity of 100:0 (4 steps). Moreover, 6 was carried on to (-)-talo-quercitol whereas 7 furnished the four remaining title quercitols (3-5 steps) including both enantiomers of gala-quercitol.

Photooxygenation of cyclohexa-1,4-diene afforded anti-2,3-dioxabicyclo[2.2. 2]oct-7-en-5-yl hydroperoxide. The hydroperoxy endoperoxide was reduced with dimethylsulfide-titanium tetraisopropoxide to produce (±)-anti-2,3- dioxabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-7-en-5-ol. The highly efficient enantioselective resolution of the racemic (±)-anti-2,3-dioxabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-7-en-5-ol was accomplished with Candida cylindracea lipase (CCL) to produce the enantiomerically enriched alcohol and the corresponding acetate: The cleavage of the peroxide linkage by thiourea followed by the oxidation of the double bond with OsO4 resulted in the formation of (-)-proto-quercitol and (+)-proto-quercitol, respectively.
