The enzymatic kinetic resolution of alpha-hydroxysilanes where the silicon bears a variety of substituents has been explored. Reactions were performed on various alpha-hydroxysilanes with several commercially available enzymes, solvents, acetylation reagents, and temperatures. The resulting optically active alpha-hydroxysilanes and their corresponding acetates were obtained in varying yields and ees. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The regiodivergent ring contraction of diastereomeric 2-silyl-5,6-dihydro-6-aryl-(2H)-pyrans via [1,2]- and [1,4]-Wittig rearrangements to the corresponding a-silylcyclopentenols or (alpha-cyclopropyl)acylsilanes favor the [1,4]-pathway by ortho and para directing groups in the aromatic appendage and/or by sterically demanding silyl groups. The [1,2]-pathway is dominant with meta directing or electron-poor aromatic moieties. Exclusive [1,2]-Wittig rearrangements are observed when olefin substituents proximal to the silyl are present. cis and trans diastereomers exhibit different reactivities, but converge to a single [1,2]- or [1,4]-Wittig product with high diastereoselectivity and yield.
