The stereoselective total synthesis of the naturally occurring γ ‐lactone derivative botryolide E ( 1 ) was accomplished with acetaldehyde as the starting material ( Scheme 2 ). The asymmetric allyl boration, asymmetric dihydroxylation, chelation‐mediated diastereoselective vinylation, and ring‐closing metathesis reaction are the key steps. The method can conveniently be utilized for the preparation of other related γ ‐lactone derivatives.
