Abstract
We have developed a novel route for the efficient synthesis of pharmaceutically significant 3-substituted oxetan-3-yl methyl alcohols starting from readily available malonates. The synthesis harnesses the diversity of malonate chemistry and allows access to a range of oxetanes, which exemplifies the versatility of this procedure.
