For the ( E )‐4‐hydroxy‐2‐alkenoic acid ester part‐structure 1, which is widely distributed in natural products , a stereoselective synthesis has been worked out. For this purpose, a 4‐functionalized 2‐alkynoic acid ester, prepared from an aldehyde and Li compound 2 , is reduced E ‐stereoselectively to 1 . The range of application can be demonstrated using aldehyde 3 .
