Short Synthesis of Enantiopure C2-Symmetric 1,2:4,5-Diepoxypentane and “Pseudo”-C2-Symmetric 3-Azido-1,2:4,5-diepoxypentane from Arabitol
摘要:
On the basis of our previously described selective protection of arabitol as its 1,2:4,5-bis-pentylidene acetal 5, we report a straightforward synthesis of the novel "pseudo"-C-2-symmetric 3-azido-1,2:4,5-diepoxypentane building block 4 in 6 steps from arabitol. Using a similar synthetic route, an improved synthesis of the C-2-symmetrical 1,2:4,5-bis-epoxypentane building block I is described, also in 6 steps from arabitol. Both enantiomers of 1 and 4 are accessible, and all reactions involved are easily amenable for large-scale synthesis.

phenyl 4,4'-bis(oxazoline) [AraBOX] is described. The novel ligand is prepared in two efficient steps from a bis-[(O-silyl)β-amino alcohol], via conversion into an intermediate bis(benzamide) followed by a one-pot deprotection-activation-ring closure (DARC) oxazoline formation. To our knowledge, this is the first reported synthesis of an oxazoline ring via this DARC method. The synthesis of two precursor
