Diastereoselectivity in heterogeneous catalytic hydrogenation of Baylis–Hillman adducts. Total synthesis of (±)-sitophilate
摘要:
We describe herein a highly diastereoselective total synthesis of racemic sitophilate, based on the results obtained in a diastereoselective heterogeneous catalytic hydrogenation reaction of a set of Baylis-Hillman adducts originating from aliphatic aldehydes.

reported for the regioselective carbonylation of trans-disubstituted epoxides to cis-β-lactones. The two catalysts display high and opposing selectivities, which generally are difficult to achieve for this class of epoxides. The resulting β-lactones are well-defined precursors for a wide variety of aldol-type compounds. Altogether, carbonylation of disubstituted epoxides is established as a viable and
