ABSTRACT:
A method of preparing (S)-.gamma.-hydroxymethyl-.alpha.,.beta.-butenolide includes the step of oxidizing a levoglucosenone with a peracid in an organic solvent. Peracetic acid, metha-chloroperbenzoic acid or magnesium monoperoxyphthalate hexahydrate can be used as the peracid. According to this method, an (S)-.gamma.-hydroxymethyl-.alpha.,.beta.-butenolide having high optical purity can be easily prepared from a levoglucosenone as a starting material at a high yield.
