PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ALKANEDIOL DERIVATIVES
-
, (2008/06/13)
The present invention provides a process for producing an alkanediol derivative represented by the general formula (II) from an ester compound represented by the general formula (I), safely without giving rise to racemization. The present invention lies in a process for producing an alcohol derivative represented by the following general formula (II): (wherein R2 and R3 are each independently a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms; X is a hydrogen atom or a protecting group for hydroxyl group; and n is 0 or 1), which process comprises reducing an ester compound represented by the following general formula (I): (wherein R1 is an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms; and R2, R3, X and n have the same definitions as given above) with sodium borohydride in a mixed solvent of at least one kind of solvent selected from the group consisting of aromatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic hydrocarbons and alicyclic hydrocarbons and a primary alcohol.
Complementary diastereoselectivity in the intermolecular addition of titanium and magnesium naphtholates to asymmetric lactaldehydes

Addition of 7-benzyloxy-4,5-dimethoxy-1-naphthol 3 as its triisopropoxytitanium naphtholate to (2R, 1′R or S)-2-(1′-ethoxyethoxy)propanal 4 afforded solely (15, 2R, 1″R or S)-1-(7′-benzyloxy-4′,5′-dimethoxy-1′-hydroxy-2′- naphthyl)-2-(1″-ethoxyethoxy)propan-l-ol 5, being the erythro product arising from anti addition. Complementary reaction of the naphthol 3 as its bromomagnesium naphtholate with aldehyde 4 gave rise solely to the alternative (1R, 2R, 1″R or S) diastereomer 6. The naphthol 3 was prepared through the completely regioselective addition of 2-methoxyfuran 9 to 5-benzyloxy-3-methoxydehydrobenzene 8. This differentially protected bisalkoxybenzyne was conveniently prepared from vanillin. The Royal Society of Chemistry 1999.

A series of new ether lipid-3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) conjugates (11a-g) were synthesized and evaluated for anti-HIV activity. The effect of chirality on the antiviral activity was examined through the synthesis of AZT conjugates bearing alkoxypropanols in the lipid portion of the molecule (11a-d). In addition, the long alkyl chain of alkoxyethyl ether lipid-AZT analogs was replaced with aromatic groups (11e-g), and the effect of this structural modification on activity is reported. The results of the biological tests indicate that analogs with a methyl group α to the phosphate moiety (11c,d) exhibit a marked degree of stereoselectivity with regard to their anti-HIV activity. Also, replacement of the long alkyl chain with aromatic groups in the oxyalkyl ether phospholipid-AZT conjugates leads to substantially more potent compounds (11e-g) with an anti-HIV activity comparable to that of AZT.
Phosphane ligands with two binding sites of differing hardness for enantioselective Grignard cross coupling
Terfort, Andreas,Brunner, Henri
, p. 1467 - 1479 (2007/10/03)
A series of new, chiral phosphanes is presented, individual members of which were designed to serve as ligands in transition-metal mediated asymmetric Grignard cross coupling reactions. These ligands are characterized by a side chain containing one or two oxygen atoms with the capacity to act as binding sites for the incoming Grignard reagent. A number of structural parameters for the compounds was varied to learn about the reaction mechanism. Most of the ligands were tested in two cross coupling reactions, the formation of 3-phenylbut-1-ene and of 2,2′-dimethyl-1,1′-binaphthyl, respectively. Although both systems gave modest enantiomeric excesses it was not possible to make a comparison of their respective abilities.
