Abstract

Abstract Three syntheses of (2 S , 3 R )‐2,5‐dihydroxy‐3‐methylpentanoic acid (verrucarinic acid) and its derivatives suitably protected for the further transformation to macrocyclic trichothecenes are described. These involve an enantioselective ester hydrolysis by pig liver esterase, a Sharpless epoxidation and an asymmetric hydroboration.
