The first enantioselective synthesis of palinurin has been accomplished starting from commercially available furaldehyde and (R)-methyl-3-hydroxy-2- methylpropionate; the key steps of the synthesis include the use of a chiral pyrrolidine to create the chiral tetronic moiety, and Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons, Wittig and Wittig-Horner reactions to construct the alkene units.

Three biosynthetically significant α-keto acids KDO (7), DAH (8) and KDG (9) have been synthesised via 5-ylidene-1,3-dioxalan-4-one intermediates formed by Wittig reactions of protected monosaccharide-derived aldehydes with the Wittig reagent (3).

2,2-Pentamethylene-1,3-dioxolan-4-one (10) has been elaborated to provide 5'-ylidene derivatives using a Wittig approach.This apparently novel class of compounds is subject to nucleophilic attack at the 4-position because of strain inherent in the 5-membered ring.Thus alkaline hydrolysis leads to the formation of α-keto acids; hydride reduction of dioxolanones incorporating conjugated aryl substituents using di-isobutylaluminium hydride leads to α-keto-aldehydes; the reaction of dioxolanone (15) with methylmagnesium iodide gave the α-ketol (40).
