A practical method for the synthesis of several useful polyhydroxylated chiral building blocks has been developed.The key reaction is the kinetic resolution of (E)-1-trimethylsilyl-4-alkoxy-1-buten-3-ol or (E)-1-trimethylsilyl-5-alkoxy-1-penten-3-ol using the Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation reaction.
