Abstract

Disclosed is a process for preparing chiral compounds of the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein: X.sup.1 and X.sup.2 are independently F or Cl; and E is --SO.sub.2 R.sup.2, wherein R.sup.2 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, --C.sub.6 H.sub.4 CH.sub.3 or --CF.sub.3 ; its enantiomer and racemates thereof, useful in the synthesis of tetrahydrofuran azole antifungals. Novel compounds of the formula ##STR2## wherein: X.sup.1 and X.sup.2 are independently F or Cl; B represents --C(O)Q* or --CH.sub.2 OR"; Q* represents a chiral auxiliary group; R" represents a hydroxy protecting group selected from --CH.sub.2 C.sub.6 H.sub.5, or --C(O)R.sup.1, wherein R.sup.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl; and A represents Cl, Br, I or triazolyl; are also disclosed.
