Synthesis of ( R )‐β, β‐Caroten‐2‐ol and (2 R , 2′ R )‐β, β‐Carotene‐2,2′‐diol Starting from geraniol, the two carotenoids ( R )‐β, β‐caroten‐2‐ol ( 1 ) and (2 R , 2′ R )‐β, β‐carotene‐2,2′‐diol ( 3 ) were synthesized. The optically active cyclic building block was obtained by an acid‐catalysed cyclisation of the epoxide ( R )‐ 4 . The enantiomeric excess of the product was > 95 %.
