Synthesis of alkyl (α-phenylthioalkenyl) ketones containing a (Z)-trisubstituted olefinic fragment
摘要:
Warren's method, which has been proposed for the synthesis of alpha-phenylthiodialkyl ketones, appeared to be inefficient for the preparation of their alkenyl alkyl analogs. The latter were prepared in good yields by alkenylation of alkyl phenylthiomethyl ketones with alkenyl bromides.

γ-disubstituted and β,γ-disubstituted allylicalcohols were prepared and successfully hydrogenated using suitable N,P-based Ir complexes. High yields and excellent enantioselectivities were obtained for most of the substrates studied. This investigation also revealed the effect of the acidity of the N,P–Ir-complexes on the acid-sensitive allylicalcohols. DFT ΔpKa calculations were used to explain the effect of
Chiral Amino Alcohol Accelerated and Stereocontrolled Allylboration of Iminoisatins: Highly Efficient Construction of Adjacent Quaternary Stereogenic Centers
We have developed a highly efficient asymmetric allylboration of ketimines with nonchiral γ,γ‐disubstituted allylboronic acids by using a chiral amino alcohol as the directing group, which is otherwise challenging. The amino alcohol not only serves as a cheap source of nitrogen and chirality, but also dramatically enhances the reactivity. The versatility of this method was demonstrated by its ability

Nerol and geraniol were stereoselectively converted to (±)-threo- and (±)-erythro-4-methylheptan-3-ol respectively. (R)-(+)-Citronellic acid was converted to a mixture of (3R,4R)-(+)-threo- and (3S,4R)-(+)-erythro-isomers which was separable by GLC. These syntheses established the absolute configuration of the naturally occurring (−)-4-methylheptan-3-ol to be 3S,4S.
