Efficient Preparation of γ-Hydroxynitriles via Nitrile Enolate-Epoxide Reactions: Scope and Diastereoselectivity
摘要:
The nucleophilic opening of epoxides by nitrile enolates using an efficient, convenient protocol is described The diastereoselectivity of this reaction was explored and found to give syn:anti ratios ranging from 1.1:1.0 to 4.8:1.0.
