A transition-metal-free cis-dihydroxylation of saturated hydrocarbons under ambient reaction conditions has been developed. The described approach allows a direct and selective synthesis of vicinal diols. The new reaction thereby proceeds via radical iodination and a sequence of oxidation steps. A broad scope of one-pot dual C(sp3)-H bond functionalization for the selective synthesis of vicinal syn-diols was demonstrated.

Asymmetric biocatalytic hydrolysis of (±)-2,3-disubstituted oxiranes leading to the formation of vicinal diols in up to 97% ee at 100% conversion was accomplished by using the epoxide hydrolase activity of various bacterial strains. The mechanism of this deracemization was elucidated by 18OH2-labelling experiments using a partially purified epoxide hydrolase from Nocardia EH1. The reaction was shown to proceed in an enantioconvergent fashion by attack of OH- at the (S)-configured oxirane carbon atom with concomitant inversion of configuration. A mathematical model developed for the description of the kinetics was verified by the determination of the four relative rate constants governing the regio- and enantio-selectivity of the process.

A new versatile and efficient regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective synthesis of vicinal diols s-trans-4, s-trans-5, and s-cis-4 is described.Symmetrical ketones are converted into their SAMP- or RAMP-hydrazones which are then silylated with (isopropyloxy)dimethylsilyl chloride, followed by ozonolysis to afford the α-silyl ketones (R)-2 of high enantiomeric purity (ee 90 > 98percent).On the other hand, methyl ketones, after conversion into the corresponding (-)-(S)-1-amino-2-(methoxymethyl)pyrrolidine (SAMP) hydrazones, are silylated and then alkylated with R1 to afford unsymmetrical α-silyl ketones (S)-3 of high enantiomeric purity (ee 90->98percent).The reduction of the above obtained α-silyl ketones with L-Selectride, followed by oxidative cleavage of the C-Si bond gives rise to s-trans-4, s-trans-5, and s-cis-4 with high diastereoselectivity (de 95->98percent) and without racemization (ee >90->98percent).
