Abstract
Abstract An efficient four step route for the synthesis of 9-(2-hydroxyethyl)-7,11-dioxaspiro[5,5] undecane, an intermediate in the preparation of antiviral acyclonucleosides is described. The key transformations, ketalisation, hydroformylation and ring transformation are achieved through catalytic reactions.
