A Desymmetrization Approach to the Enantiopure syn/anti‐1,5‐Diols via Hydrolytic Kinetic Resolution (HKR) of Functionalized meso‐Bis‐Epoxides: Further Elaboration to syn/syn‐1,3,5‐Triols and Application to the Formal Synthesis of Cryptocarya Diacetate |

| Abstract: | A new approach has been developed for the synthesis of enantiopure syn/anti‐1,5‐diols by desymmetrization of functionalized meso‐bis‐epoxides using hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR). The usage of this protocol was demonstrated by converting syn‐1,5‐diols into syn/syn‐1,3,5‐triols and its subseqent application to the formal synthesis of cryptocarya diacetate. |
