We describe here the enantioselectivesynthesis of (+)-monocerin and its acetate derivative. The present synthesis features an efficient optically active synthesis of the β-hydroxy-γ-lactone derivative with high enantiomeric purity using Sharpless dihydroxylation as the key step. The synthesis also highlights a tandem Lewis acid-catalyzed, oxocarbenium ion-mediated diastereoselective syn-allylation
