Highly diastereoselective synthesis of 2-substituted-1,3-diols catalyzed by ketoreductases
摘要:
The stereoselective reduction of alpha-substituted-beta-hydroxy ketones for the preparation of the corresponding optically pure 2-monosubstituted or 2-disubstituted-1,3-diols is described. These transformations proceed in high optical purities and yields. Ketoreductases were able to catalyze the formation of either the syn or the anti diol, depending on the enzyme. By replacing the a-alkyl substituent for an OAc moiety, in low conversion time (<= 24 h), ketoreductases catalyzed the formation of the OAc-protected 1,2,3-triol, in high yield and with high optical purity (>99% de, >99% ee). This is a simple and highly stereoselective method for the synthesis of different diastereomers of chiral diols. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
A Versatile Approach Towards Enantiopure α-Methyl β-Hydroxy Ketones. Application to the Synthesis of (4R,5S) Sitophilure and of Its Stereoisomers
摘要:
Rice weevil pheromone sitophilure ((4R,5S)-5-hydroxy-4-methyl-3-heptanone) and its three diastereomers were synthesized in three steps, starting from 3-(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-pentadiene and propionaldehyde. Other optically active alpha-methyl beta-hydroxy ketones can also be synthesized by the reported procedure.

1990 and, to this day, remains a compelling synthesis target. Not only does the compound possess fascinating biological activity, but it also presents an opportunity to test current methods for chemical synthesis and provides an inspiration for new reaction development. A new synthesis of discodermolide employs a previously undisclosed stereoselectivecatalytic diene hydroboration and also establishes

and in two examples both ketones were reduced to the 1,3-diol. By replacing the α-alkyl substituent with the OAc group, 1-keto-2,3-diols, as well as 1,2,3-triols were synthesized in high optical purities. These enzymatic reactions provide a simple, highly stereoselective and quantitative method for the synthesis of different diastereomers of valuable chiralsynthonsfrom non-chiral, easily accessible

Reduction of 4-methyl heptan 3,5-dione by resting cells of provides natural sitophilure (4R,5S)-(−)-4-methyl 5-hydroxy heptan 3-one under anaerobic conditions. Diastereoisomer (4S,5S)-(+)-4-methyl 5-hydroxy heptan 3-one is obtained under aerobic conditions. Starting β-diketone is easily obtained by a one-pot synthesis. Good yield and high enantiomeric excess are obtained for the natural pheromone.
one-pot procedure to achieve efficient DYKAT of α-substituted β-hydroxyketones. This newly developed protocol offers straightforward access to enantiomericallypure and diastereomerically enriched β-oxoacetates in high yields by employing a ruthenium-based racemization catalyst for efficient racemization-epimerization of substrates via formation of non-chiral 1,3-diketone intermediates.
Enantioselective acylation of enolates; the reaction of (4R)-trans-diethyl 2-alkyl-2-methoxy-1,3-dioxolane-4,5-dicarboxylates with E- and Z-silyl enol ethers
The stereoselectivity of the Lewis acid induced acylation of open-chain silyl enoi ethers by chiral orthoesters is strongly affected by the CC bond configuration: both Z and E silyl enol ethers are acylated in good isolated yields, but the Z isomers give rise to a 1 : 1 ratio of diastereoisomeric monoprotected 1,3-diketones, while excellent stereoselectivities are obtained with E enols.
