A new vinylsilane substitution reaction with glyoxylate: asymmetric synthesis of .alpha.-hydroxy .beta.,.gamma.-unsaturated esters
摘要:
The vinylsilane substitution reaction with glyoxylate and the asymmetric version thereof are described. These new reactions provide alpha-hydroxy beta, gamma-unsaturated esters of biological and synthetic importance in high enantiomeric and geometric purity.
