摘要:
Both D- and L-enantiomers of 2-deoxy-4-thioribose derivatives 12 and 17 were prepared stereospecifically in 12 steps from 1,3-propanediol. The key intermediary 2,3-epoxy alcohols, 8 and 15 were obtained with high enantiomeric excess by the Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation using (+)-L-diethyl tartrate and (-)-D-diethyl tartrate.
