Highly diastereoselective catalytic Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reductions

, p. 840 - 843 (2007/10/03)
Very practical synthesis of ephedrine analogues in high yields and enantiopurity was realized by a highly diastereoselective Meerwein-Ponndorf- Verley (MPV) reduction of protected α-amino aromatic ketones using catalytic aluminum isopropoxide. The high anti selectivity resulted from the chelation of the nitrogen anion to the aluminum. In contrast, high syn selectivity was obtained with α-alkoxy ketones and other compounds via Felkin-Ahn control.

, p. 953 - 954 (2007/10/03)
Synthesis of (1S,2S)-pseudoephedrine is described via reduction of an alanine-derived oxazolidinone followed by treating with phenyl magnesium bromide and chemoselective N-methylation in an efficient and practical manner. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
Highly stereoselective acetylations via norephedrine derived oxazolidines

Norephedrine derived 2-methoxy-2-methyl oxazolidine 2 is an efficient stereoselective acetylating agent in reactions with stereogenic silylenolethers and silylketenethiolacetals. Moderate selectivity is also obtained upon acetylation of crotyltin reagents
