Diastereo and Enantioselective Synthesis of 1,2-Diols Promoted by Electrophilic Selenium Reagents
摘要:
Here we report the first example in which the phenylseleno group is directly substituted by a hydroxy function. The reaction is promoted by the PhSeOSO3H generated "in situ" by oxidation of (PhSe)(2) with (NH4)(2)S2O8 at reflux in a 3:1 mixture of MeCN-H2O. Interestingly the reaction can be performed in "one pot" using a catalytic amount of diselenide affording the corresponding diols (5 and 6) with good yield and good level of diastereo- and enantioselectivity.

Abstract Calarene was oxidized by Bacillus megaterium and Diplodiagossypina to give allylic calarenols and calarendiols in which either of the geminal methyl groups of the cyclopropane ring was hydroxylated. Globulol was hydroxylated faster and in higher yields than calarene by both strains. In the case of this compound, vicinal diols were formed and, again, either of the geminal methyl groups was

Both 7α-hydroxy- and
7α,15-dihydroxy-aromadendrane are efficiently hydroxylated
by Mucor plumbeus at C-14 with retention of the adjacent
cyclopropane ring.
