An enantioselective synthesis of (R)-mevalonolactone (1) has been accomplished starting from known epoxide 2, prepared with ⪢95% ee by asymmetric epoxidation of nerol. Functional group manipulation of 2 and ozonolysis afforded intermediate 8, which was converted to 11 via phenylselenoxide formation, followed by appropriate oxidations and deprotection, to afford 1.
