A Practical Synthesis of (S)-Cyclopent-2-enol

In the original article, a major reference is missing. Alcohol 5 has been previously synthesized by Fürstner et al. according to the same synthetic pathway based on the Noyori"s enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of the ynone 4.1 We apologize for this omission and we thank Professor Alois Fürstner, MPI Mülheim, for drawing our attention to this oversight.Reference: (1) (a) Fürstner, A.; Aïssa, C.; Chevrier, C.; Teply, F.; Nevado, C.; Tremblay, M.
