Via combination of a novel acid-promoted rearrangement of acetal functionality with the controlled installation of the epoxide unit to create the pivotal epoxide intermediates in enantiomerically pure form, a simple, concise, flexible, and readily scalable enantiodivergent synthesis of (+)- and (-)-shikimic acids and (+)- and (-)-4-epi-shikimic acids has emerged. This simple strategy not only provides an efficient approach to shikimic acids but also can readily be adopted for the synthesis of (+)- and (-)-pinitols. These concise total syntheses exemplify the use of pivotal allylic epoxide 14 and its enantiomer ent-14. A readily available inexpensive C2-symmetric l-tartaric acid (7) served as key precursor. In general, the strategy here provides a neat example of the use of a four-carbon chiron and offers a good account of the synthesis of functionalized cyclohexane targets.

The influenza virus neuraminidase (NA) is essential for viral infection and offers a potential target for antiviral drug development. We prepared a carbocyclic sialic acid analogue, potentially able to inhibit NA. Its structure is an analogue of the trans

The influence of C2-substitution of GS 4071 on the influenza neuraminidase inhibitory activity was investigated. The introduction of lipophilic substituents (chloro, methyl, and methylthio) at the C2 position resulted in a significant decrease of the activity. This result indicates that at the enzyme active site there is limited hydrophobic pocket for a group at the C2 position of GS 4071.

cis-Cyclohexa-3,5-diene-1,2-diol 2, the product of oxidation of benzene by mutants of Pseudomonas putida, was transformed into optically pure 4 in a sequence involving asymmetrization of meso-diol 3 in organic media with Pseudomonas cepacia lipase.Alcohol
