The total synthesis of (-)-oudemansin A (1) was accomplished in a ten-step sequence with good overall yield (20 %) and excellent diastereo- and enantiomeric excesses (de, ee ≥ 98 %). Key step of the synthesis is the asymmetric [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement of crotyloxyacetaldehyde-SAEP-hydrazone [(S)-6].
