The key chiral intermediates 11 were prepared with complete stereocontrol through the proline-catalyzed intermolecular aldol reaction between acetone and d-glyceraldehyde acetonide. The synthetic utility of the intermediates was demonstrated by their transformation into the title hydroxylated pyrans and a variety of unsaturated lactones through standard synthetic protocols.</style></abstract><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.068</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
