Abstract
Diols are desymmetrized by a tandem oxidation/Wittig olefination to give alpha,beta-unsaturated hydroxy esters without the requirement for protecting group strategies; the alpha,beta-unsaturated hydroxy esters are transformed into dienyl diesters using a second oxidation/Wittig olefination sequence using PCC.
