A catalytic asymmetric intramolecular homologation of simple ketones with α-diazoesters was firstly accomplished with a chiral N,N′-dioxide-Sc(OTf)3 complex. This method provides an efficient access to chiral cyclic α-aryl/alkyl β-ketoesters containing an all-carbon quaternary stereocenter. Under mild conditions, a variety of aryl- and alkyl-substituted ketone groups reacted with α-diazoester groups smoothly through an intramolecular addition/rearrangement process, producing the β-ketoesters in high yield and enantiomeric excess.

(-)-Herbertenediol (3) which is regarded as a biosynthetic precursor of mastigophorenes A and B has been effectively synthesized from (R)-1,2-dimethyl-2-cyclopentene carboxylic acid by applying an intramolecular Heck reaction to the construction of the quaternary carbon center, and then horseradish peroxidase-catalyzed oxidative coupling of 3 has given rise to (-)-mastigophorenes A and B. Mastigophorenes A and B have been found to exhibit significant neuroprotective activity in primary cultures of fetal rat cortical neurons.

Total synthesis of herbertenediol, an isocuparane-sesquiterpene possessing a potent anti-lipid peroxidation activity isolated from a liverwort, has been achieved via herbertenol using intramolecular Heck reaction as the key step.

Kinetic resolution of racemic α-tertiary ketones with 0.5-0.6 molar equiv of B-chlorodiisopinocampheylborane provides the product alcohols in very high diastereomeric and enantiomeric excess, with the unreacted ketone recovered in very high ee.For example, ethyl 1-methyl-2-oxocyclopentane- and cyclohexanecarboxylates are partially reduced to recover the ketone in 91 to >/=99percent ee and the product alcohols in up to 94percent de, with >90percent ee for the major diastereomer.Bicyclic ketones, such as 1-methyl- and 1-ethylnorcamphor, camphor, and camphenilone, are readily resolved to provide the ketone in 92 to >/=99percent ee, with the product alcohol recovered in high de and ee.Dihydrospirooctane-2,2'(3'H)-furan>-3-one is resolved to provide the ketone in >/=99percent ee and the product alcohol in >/=99percent de.In all the cases studied, the R-isomer of the ketone is recovered when dIpc2BCl is used for kinetic resolution, while lIpc2BCl provides the S-ketone.Optimum conditions for obtaining the product alcohol, or the ketone, or both, in very high yields and ee have been established.

Bakers' yeast reduction of S-ethyl 2-cyclopentanonecarboxylthioate affords optically pure S-ethyl (1R,2S)-2-hydroxycyclopentanecarboxylthioate which is stereoselectively converted into (-)-malyngolide and (-)-frontalin.
