Optically active 9-Z(3R,3'R)-diatoxanthin and 9-Z(3R)-7,8-didehydrocryptoxanthin were synthesised in an overall yield of 9% and 11% respectively, with a seven step C-9+C-6+C-25=C-40 strategy. A key intermediate was the previously undescribed C-15-acetylenic aldehyde 2-Z-5-((4'R)-4'-hydroxy-2',6',6'-trimethylcyclohex-1'-enyl)-3-methyl-2-penten-4-yn-1-al.Observed isomerisation shifts for the title compounds relative to the all-E isomers in H-1 NMR and C-13 NMR were as expected. CD properties are discussed.
