(S)-1-Aryl-2-sulfonyloxy-1-alkanone acetals, prepared from natural ethyl (S)-lactate or (S)-valine (chiral sources) by the use of a Grignard reaction, were rearranged under hydrolytic conditions in the presence of a base to give (S)-2-arylalkanoic esters which in general, showed much higher pharmacological activities than their antipodes.
A NOVEL SYNTHETIC METHOD OF OPTICALLY PURE α-SUBSTITUTED ALDEHYDE ACETALS BY USE OF REDUCTIVE 1,2-REARRANGEMENT

, p. 1153 - 1156 (2007/10/02)
A new reductive 1,2-rearrangement of aryl (or alkenyl) groups of α-sulfonyloxy acetals to give the title compounds was developed by using the combination of i-Bu2AlH and Et3Al, and this method was applied to the synthesis of optically pure (R)-(-)-α-curcu
