Diastereospecific ring cleavage of bornane-2,3-dione in the Bucherer-Bergs reaction
摘要:
A novel regio- and diastereospecific ring cleavage of bornane-2,3-dione (camphor quinone) under Bucherer-Bergs reaction conditions has been investigated. The simplicity of this transformation provides a novel and straightforward synthetic pathway to enantiopure derivatives of cyclopentane carboxylic acid as well as functionalized hydantoins in just two steps, starting from inexpensive and easily available camphor.
