The first asymmetric synthesis of (6S,13R)-6,13-dihydroxytetradeca-(2E,4E,8E)- trienoate has been developed. The key steps of the synthesis were the use of an efficient lipase-catalyzed acylation, a chiral template-driven enantiocontrolled allylation for introducing the stereogenic centers, and a cross-metathesis for controlling the C-8 olefin geometry.
