Enantiodifferentiating functionalization of cis-cycloalkane-1,2-diols and cis-endo-5-norbornen-2,3-ylenebis(methanol) via chiral spiroacetals derived from L-menthone
The combination of hexamethyldisilane and a catalytic amount of [PdCl(η3-C3H5)]2–PPh3 was found to be effective for the trimethylsilylation of alcohols, where both of the two trimethylsilyl groups of hexamethyldisilane were transferred to alcohols without coproduction of any stoichiometric amount of byproduct but H2.
in the presence of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate as the catalyst. Application to cis - and trans -1,2-diols containing primary, secondary, and tertiary hydroxyl groups was examined, and a new rearrangement was found in the reaction of a d -glucono-1,5-lactone derivative having an acetyl group at O-6.
Enantioselective desymmetrization of meso-1,2-diols was accomplished viadiastereoselective CO bond fission of acetals derived from various optically active β-ketosulfoxides with high diastereoselectivities. The substituent at the γ-position of the β-ketosulfoxide plays an important role in this cleavage.

The incorporation of alkoxy ligands within a range of alkoxyfluoroboranes and dialkoxyfluoroboranes results in fluoroborane reagents with attenuated Lewis acidity and increased ability to donate fluoride ion(s) when compared to boron trifluoride itself. Pinacolatoboron fluoride (pinBF), prepared in situ from BF3 center dot OEt2 and bis(O-trimethylsilyl)pinacol, has been identified as an efficient fluoride donor which allows highly stereoselective S(N)1-type epoxide ring-opening (with retention of configuration) of a range of trans-beta-methyl-substituted aryl epoxides to give the corresponding syn-fluorohydrins. The substrate scope of this transformation is more broad than the analogous protocol using boron trifluoride alone. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
