Pinacol rearrangement for constructing asymmetric centers adjacent to heterocycles
摘要:
Stereospecific pinacol-type 1,2-shift of electron-rich heterocycles was achieved Under organoaluminum-promoted conditions to afford optically pure ketones or alcohols possessing these heterocycles. The method was applied to the asymmetric formal total synthesis of indolmycin. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
