The use of the iodoetherification reaction for the selective preparation of optically active trans-2,4-disubstituted tetrahydrofurans and the use of the latter compounds as precursors of syn-1,3-diols is exemplified in the synthesis of (1R,3R,5S)-Endo-1,3
PREPARATION OF ETHYL 5(S),6-EPOXY-3(R)-(METHOXYMETHOXY)HEXANOATE: A KEY CHIRAL INTERMEDIATE FOR MEVINOLIN AND COMPACTIN.

The synthesis of Ethyl 5(S),6-Epoxy-3(R)-(methoxymethoxy)hexanoate, a key chiral synthon for the β-hydroxy-δ-lactone portion of Mevinolin and Compactin, via a regiospecific ring opening of a tetrahydrofuran derivative by dimethyboron bromide, is described.
