Diastereo- and Enantioselective Synthesis of (E)-2-Methyl-1,2-syn- and (E)-2-Methyl-1,2-anti-3-pentenediols via Allenylboronate Kinetic Resolution with (dIpc)2BH and Aldehyde Allylboration
摘要:
Enantioselective hydroboration of racemic allenylboronate (+/-)-1 with 0.48 equiv of ((d)Ipc)(2)BH at -25 degrees C proceeds with efficient kinetic resolution and provides allylborane (R)-Z-4. When heated to 95 degrees C, allylborane (R)-Z-4 isomerizes to the thermodynamically more stable allylborane isomer (S)-E-7. Subsequent allylboration of aldehydes with (R)-Z-4 or (S)-E-7 at -78 degrees C followed by oxidative workup provides 1,2-syn- or 1,2-anti-diols, 2 or 3, respectively, in 87-94% ee.
