• General Description: (S)-2-Methylbutanal is a chiral aldehyde used in stereoselective reactions, particularly in studies involving diastereofacial selectivity. It serves as a reactant in carbonyl allylation processes, where its chirality influences the stereochemical outcome of the reaction. The compound is valuable in synthesizing stereochemically complex molecules, such as macrolide and polyether antibiotics, due to its ability to participate in highly selective transformations when paired with appropriate chiral reagents.

The research focuses on the synthesis and reaction of chiral aldehydes with specific reagents to study diastereofacial selectivity. The purpose is to explore the factors controlling aldehyde facial selectivity using crotyldiisopinocampheylboranes (13-16) with chiral aldehydes (17 and 18). The reactions were highly stereoselective, yielding products with high facial selectivities. The study concludes that the chirality of the reagent controls the overall diastereofacial selectivity in the reaction, allowing access to all possible stereoisomers in high optical purity by selecting the proper antipode of the reagents and aldehydes. This method could be a convenient route for synthesizing macrolide and polyether antibiotics. (S)-2-Methylbutanal and (S)-2-(benzyloxy)propanal are chiral aldehydes used as reactants to study diastereoselectivity.
