title: Stereoselective Synthesis of (2R, 3S)-2-Benzyl-2-hydroxy-3- (3,4-methylenedioxybenzyl)-γ-butyrolactone from L-(+)-Arabinose.
abstract: As a model experiment for the stereoselective synthesis of optically active cis-α,β-dibenzyl-α-hydroxy-γ-butyrolactone, (2R, 3S)-2-benzyl-2-hydroxy-3-(3,4-methylenedioxybenzyl)-γ-butyrolactone (3) was stereoselectively synthesized from L-(+)-arabinose.
