The opening of trans-2-3-epoxy-butan-1-ol derivatives with various organometallic reagents was studied to find the best conditions necessary to obtain convenient yields and regioselectivities for their application in natural product synthesis.

The C4 erythro and threo diols (7) and (8) are converted either into the chiral epoxides (13) and (15) or into the enantiomers (14) and (16); the epoxide (13) is used as chiral synthon for the preparation of (3S,4S) 4-methyl-3-heptanol (21).
