Abstract

Abstract The syntheses of the title compounds were accomplished via an original sequence of reactions including the ring-closing metathesis of ω-dienes by using the second- generation Grubbs' catalyst. The chiral diene precursors are available in racemic or optically enriched form from the corresponding α, α′-disubstituted lactones derivatives
