The chromium(II) salt 4a of crotyl bromide adds to ( R )‐2,3‐ O ‐isopropylideneglyceraldehyde ( 1 ) with high enantiofacial and low diastereofacial ( i. e. Cram) selectivity, whereas dilithium propionate ( 9 ) shows the opposite behaviour. The adducts 5, 7 , and 10 can be used in a formal synthesis of both enantiomers of the insect pheromone δ‐multistriatin ( 30 ).
