Different routes are described for the synthesis of 4-benzyloxy-2-D 3-phenol, a key building block in the preparation of D 3-δ-tocopherol. Conditions for the improvement of Minami's reduction are also given, allowing a straightforward route to the title compound and a new synthesis of R,R,R-5-D3-α-tocopherol in good yields, starting from widely available R,R,R-α-tocopherol.
