Abstract
Total synthesis of antitumor styryl lactones based on Sharpless asymme tric dihydroxylation and asymmetric epoxidation starting from methyl c innamate and cinnamyl alcohol, respectively, was described. Synthesis of the natural asperlin and its related compound by peculiar kinetic r esolution was also described.
