Abstract

The stereoselective synthesis of (−)-6-acetoxyhexadecanolide was achieved from the readily available chiral pool compound, L-(+)-tartaric acid. The synthetic sequence includes the elaboration of an α-benzyloxy aldehyde derived from tartaric acid with ring closing metathesis as the key step.
