The enantioselective reduction of gamma-nitroketones 1-4 and gamma-nitrodiketones 5-6 by the chiral reducing agent (+)- or (-)-diisopinocampheylchloroborane (DTP-Cl(TM)) afforded respectively nitroalcohols 7-9 with e.e.'s ranging from 33 to 86% and nitrodiols 11-12 with complete diastereoselectivity and e.e. > 95 %. Nitrodiols (1S,7S)-11 and (1S,7S)-12 were then used as chiral precursors for the synthesis of the enantiopure 2,7-diphenyl- and 2,7-di-(2'-methoxyphenyl)-2,6-dioxaspiro[4.4]nonanes, 21 and 22, as EE/ZZ mixtures.
