Acetonide protected, α-substituted ketodiols 2 were synthesized from SAMP-hydrazone 1 which were converted to exocyclic olefins 3 by a racemization-free Wittig reaction. Acidic acetal cleavage to 4 followed by selective TBS protection furnished title compounds 5 in very good overall yields and enantiomeric excesses. Key words asymmetric synthesis - hydrazones - Wittig reaction - allylic alcohols - protecting groups Full Text References References 1 König WA. Drautz H. Zähner H. Liebigs Ann.
