Industrial-scale synthesis of eldecalcitol is described. AA highly diastereoselective epoxidation of p-methoxybenzyl (PMB) protected dienol at room temperature provides the key epoxide intermediate with a secondary hydroxyl group, which is alkylated with a triflate to set up all of the subunits at the C-1, C-2, and C-3 positions of the A-ring fragment. Selective protecting group manipulation followed by palladium-catalyzed cyclization then provides the A-ring synthon. The C/D-ring fragment is obtained by (1) direct C-H hydroxylation of Grundman's ketone using in situ prepared trifluoropropanone dioxirane and (2) protection. Finally, the coupling of the A-ring with the C/D-ring fragment, global deprotection, and recrystallization provide the highly crystalline eldecalcitol.

The present work shows that it is possible to ring-open cyclic carbonates with unprotected amino acids in water. Fine tuning of the reaction parameters made it possible to suppress the degree of hydrolysis in relation to aminolysis. This enabled the synthesis of functionally dense carbamates containing alkenes, carboxylic acids, alcohols and thiols after short reaction times at room temperature. When Glycine was used as the nucleophile in the ring-opening with four different five membered cyclic carbonates, containing a plethora of functional groups, the corresponding carbamates could be obtained in excellent yields (>90%) without the need for any further purification. Furthermore, the orthogonality of the transformation was explored through ring-opening of divinylenecarbonate with unprotected amino acids equipped with nucleophilic side chains, such as serine and cysteine. In these cases the reaction selectively produced the desired carbamate, in 70 and 50% yield respectively. The synthetic design provides an inexpensive and scalable protocol towards highly functionalized building blocks that are envisioned to find applications in both the small and macromolecular arena.

An extremely efficient acylative kinetic resolution of d,l-1,2-diols in the presence of only 0.5 mol% of binaphthyl-based chiral N,N-4-dimethylaminopyridine was developed (selectivity factor of up to 180). Several key experiments revealed that hydrogen bonding between the tert-alcohol unit(s) of the catalyst and the 1,2-diol unit of the substrate is critical for accelerating the rate of monoacylation and achieving high enantioselectivity. This catalytic system can be applied to a wide range of substrates involving racemic acyclic and cyclic 1,2-diols with high selectivity factors. The kinetic resolution of d,l-hydrobenzoin and trans-1,2-cyclohexanediol on a multigram scale (10 g) also proceeded with high selectivity and under moderate reaction conditions: (i) very low catalyst loading (0.1 mol%); (ii) an easily achievable low reaction temperature (0 °C); (iii) high substrate concentration (1.0 M); and (iv) short reaction time (30 min). (Figure presented.).
