We have developed the chloramphenicol base urea-catalyzed intramolecular Michael addition of γ-hydroxy-α, β-unsaturated enones. The oxidation of the resulting products provided facile access to the corresponding α-hydroxy chiral alcohols with good efficiency and enantioselectivity, with the reaction displaying broad substrate scope. The utility of this methodology was further demonstrated by the synthesis of (R)-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutanoate, which is a key building block for the construction of the ACE inhibitor benazepril hydrochloride.

An organocatalytic, enantioselective oxy-Michael addition to achiral γ- and δ-hydroxy-α,β-enones was developed. The key transformation is an unprecedented, asymmetric conjugate addition triggered by complexation between an in situ generated boronic acid hemiester and a chiral amine catalyst. Functionally, the intermediate amine-boronate complex acts as a chiral hydroxide surrogate or synthon. The resultant chiral β-hydroxy-ketones are obtained in good to excellent yields and high ee following mild oxidative removal of the cyclic boronate. Natural products (R,12Z,15Z)-2-hydroxy-4-oxohenicosa-12,15-dienyl acetate and (+)-(S)-streptenol A were synthesized to demonstrate the utility of this reaction. Copyright
