Highly Effective Transition Structure Designed Catalyst for the Enantio- and Position-Selective Dihydroxylation of Polyisoprenoids
摘要:
GRAPHICSThe chiral monocinchona derivative shown, synthesized in one step from two efficiently prepared chiral building blocks, was designed under mechanistic guidance as a catalyst for the enantio- and position-selective dihydroxylation of the terminal isopropylidene group of polylsoprenoids. Its efficacy as a synthetic reagent for this purpose was demonstrated for several different substrates.

A ticket to total synthesis: The title reaction of meso cyclopropane cyclopentanones and epoxycyclopentanones was catalyzed by thiourea‐containing cinchonaalkaloids with good to excellent enantioselectivity (see scheme). The concept was extended to a one‐pot asymmetric desymmetrization–fragmentation–Michael addition by including a nucleophile. A kinetic resolution based on this method was also demonstrated
