Stereoselective synthesis of syn,syn-2-methyl-1,3-diols through one-pot aldol–reduction sequence
摘要:
Chx(2)BCl-inediated syn-aldol reaction of the alpha-OTBS lactate-derived ketone 1 followed by in situ reduction of the resulting boron aldolate with LiBH4 lead to complete stereoselectivity for the bororlates 2 in 80-95% yields. Then, a very mild oxidative work-up of 2 (H2O2/NaOAc in THF-H2O) allows isolation of syn,syn-2-methyl-1,3-diols 3 in yields up to 95% without migration of the TBS group.
