Synthesis of 4RS,6S,7S-serricornine and the corresponding pair of racemates

Abstract
Directed aldol condensations utilising boron enolates (2) and (7) allowed the stereospecific synthesis of the racemic thioester (3) and the chiral ester (4) in high yield; these were converted by standard methodology into the title compounds.
