addition of functionalized dialkylzincs to the γ-alkoxyaldehydes 5, 6 and 7 provides 1,4-diols 1–3 with 73–99 %ee. After a simple reaction sequence, these diols are converted to chiral γ-alkoxyaldehydes which undergo a second catalytic enantioselective addition of the same diorganozinc providing C2-symmetrical 1,4-diols 10a–f with excellent diastereoselectivity (up to 97 : 3).
在γ-烷氧基醛5、6和7上催化官能化的二烷基
锌的催化对映选择性加成后,得到1,4
-二醇1-3,其ee值为73-99。经过简单的反应序列后,这些二醇被转化为手性的γ-烷氧基醛,对第二种
有机锌进行了第二次催化对映选择性加成,从而提供了具有出色的非对映选择性(高达97:3)的C 2对称的1,4
-二醇10a-f。
