The hydroxyl-directed hydrogenation of (E)- and (Z)-gamma-hydroxy vinylstannanes and silanes has been studied in the presence of (dppb)Rh(NBD)BF4 (1). Efficient routes to gamma-hydroxy stannanes and silanes have been developed. Diastereoselectivities from 60 to >500:1 were observed. A significant difference in reaction rate and pathway was observed between the (E)- and (Z)-vinylstannanes. We observed a reductive destannation process for the (Z)-stannanes which was influenced by the size of the R group. Competition studies were carried out to determine if steric or electronic effects were responsible for the reactivity patterns observed.

A highly diastereoselective cyclopropanation of allylic alcohols, containing a silyl and/or stannyl group using samarium/dihalomethane, provides a variety of bimetallic cyclopropane carbinols in good yield. A comparison with the more traditional Simmons-Smith conditions and its variants is made. The diastereoselectivity varies from 1:10 to >50:1 and depends on the substituents on the carbinol side chain (R-group) and on the substituents on the alkene portion of the allylic alcohol. Excellent diastereoselectivity (>50:1) was always obtained whenever a eis-substituent was present. Moreover, the minor diastereomer from the cyclopropanation can easily be obtained via a simple oxidation of the major cyclopropyl carbinol, followed by a selective reduction of the corresponding cyclopropyl ketone. Using LiAlH4 at 0 degrees C, facial selectivities of 15 to 20:1 are obtained for this reduction, while slightly higher selectivities up to (29:1) can be obtained using DIBAL-H. The combination of the cyclopropanation and oxidation/selective reduction sequence provides access to both diastereomeric bimetallic cyclopropanes.
