A short, convergent synthesis of the immunosuppressant FTY720 is described involving the use of 4-hydroxymethylbenzaldehyde as a pivotal intermediate. A double Wittig strategy was developed to connect this dual-functional aldehyde with an alkyl-tether and to a readily available TRIS-derivative leading to an efficient synthesis of the target molecule.
