The pheromone (1S,5R)-(-)-frontalin was synthesized in 90% e.e. via a chemoenzymatic route. The key step was the stereoselective acylation (desymmetrization) of 2-(4,5-dihydroxy-4-hydroxymethylpentyl)-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane with vinyl acetate in organic m

1,6-Asymmetric induction was achieved in the acid-induced diastereoselective acetal cleavage reaction of a 4-substituted bicyclic acetal 8 bearing a chiral sulfinyl group. On treatment with titanium tetrachloride and 2,6-disubstituted pyridine bases, 8 gave a synthetically versatile 3,3-disubstituted dihydropyran derivative 9a with moderate diastereoselectivity. The utility of this chiral synthon was successfully demonstrated by a formal synthesis of (-)-frontalin.
TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF (S)-(-) AND (R)-(+)-FRONTALIN AND OF (-)-MALYNGOLIDE FROM THE BRANCHED-CHAIN SUGAR "α"-D-ISOSACCHARINO-LACTONE AS CHIRAL TEMPLATE

Highly enantiomerically pure (S)-(-) 2 and (R)-(+)-frontalin 3 and (-)-malyngolide 4 were synthesized from the common chiral building block, (2R)-1,2-O-isopropylidene-2-hydroxymethyl-pent-4-ene-1,2-diol 9 readily prepared in five steps and 35percent overa
