Diisopropyl tartrate modified (E)-γ-[(cyclohexyloxy)dimethylsilyl]-and (E)-γ-(dimethylphenylsilyl)allylboronates: Chiral reagents for the enantio-and diastereoselective synthesis of anti 1,2-diols and 2-butene-1,4-diols via the formal α- and γ-hydroxyallylation of aldehydes

Enantioselective synthesis of 4-substituted (E)-2-butene-1,4-diols and anti 1,2-diols are described. Highly diastereoselective reactions of aldehydes and the chiral PhMe2Si- and (C6H11O)Me2Si-substituted allylboronates 25 and 26 provide anti homoallylic 29 and 50, respectively. Epoxidation of 29 with dimethyl dioxirane followed by acid catalyzed Petersen rearrangement of the intermediate epoxysilanols provides butee-1,4-diols 27 with excellent enantioselectivity (81-87% e.e.). Tamao oxidation of 50 provides anti diols 22 (64-72% e.e). These procedures give excellent results especially in matched double asymmetric reactions with a range of oxygenated, chiral aldehydes (Figures 1 and 2). These methods promise to find application in diastereoselective syntheses of carbohydrates from acyclic precursors.
