Abstract

A stable, simple to synthesise and versatile chiral aldehyde building-block has been developed, its reactivity in Wittig, Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons and Grignard reactions investigated, and its use is demonstrated in a highly efficient synthesis of an intermediate in Dixon’s synthesis of nakadomarin A.
