A general synthetic method directed toward highly oxygenated natural products was studied, which involved asymmetric oxidation and differentiation of the oxygen functionality. The method concluded the synthesis of a KDN equivalent lactone [(1S,2S,3R,4R)-1-(3,3-dibromo-2-oxotetrahydrofur-5-yl)-1,2,3,4,5-pentaacetoxypentane).
