Optically pure 1,3-diols from (2R,4R)- and (2S,4S)-1,2:4,5-diepoxypentane
摘要:
Optically pure (> 97% ee) (2R,4R)-1,2:4,5-diepoxypentane (1) and its enantiomer can be prepared in three steps from 2,4-pentanedione without the need for chromatographic purification. Diepoxide 1 is an efficient precursor to a wide variety of optically pure syn and anti 1,3-diols. Reaction with excess nucleophile gives symmetric[GRAPHICS]anti 1,3-diols in good yield. Reaction with a slight excess of alkyllithium under Ganem's conditions gives the monoepoxides 5 in good yield. Addition of a second nucleophile to monoepoxide 5 gives asymmetric anti 1,3-diols. Mitsunobu inversion of monoepoxide 5 followed by addition of a second nucleophile gives syn 1,3-diols. Optically pure syn and anti 1,3-diols are available from diepoxide 1 in one to three steps and good overall yield.

Monoepoxide 33 – also derived from dichlorodiol 12 – was ring-opened with the same Gilman cuprate affording compound 35. It was transformed into the correctly protected γ-lactone 6 in seven steps, key reactions being the ozonolysis 35 36 and the diastereoselective reduction 36 anti-37.
