A highly stereoselective total synthesis of (R)-(+)-tanikolide, a δ-lactonic marine natural product, was accomplished in seven steps from easily available starting materials with a 51% overall yield. An asymmetric synthesis of an α-hydroxy aldehyde having
Stereocontrolled route to some optically active β-hydroxy phosphine oxides using the stereoselective addition of metallated phosphine oxides to proline-derived keto aminals

An asymmetric Horner-Wittig addition reaction with a chiral auxiliary attached to the electrophile is described. The key step is the addition of metallated phosphine oxides to Mukaiyama's proline-derived keto aminals (for which improved syntheses are described) and a detailed study of the factors affecting the stereoselectivity of these reactions is presented. In particular, by suitable choice of metallation conditions, complementary stereoselectivities are observed: reactions in THF with no additives are syn selective (Felkin non-chelation control) whereas reactions in toluene with added lithium bromide are anti selective (Cram chelation control).
Stereocontrolled Synthesis of R or S Diphenylphosphinoyl Hydroxy Aldehydes and 1,2-Diols Using Bicyclic Aminals

, p. 2681 - 2684 (2007/10/02)
Homochiral diphenylphosphinoyl hydroxy aldehydes 1 and 2 have been made by diastereoselective additions of metallated methyldiphenylphosphine oxides 10 to Mukaiyama's keto aminals 8 and 9.Reduction to diphenylphosphinoyl 1,2 diols 3 and 4 is also described.Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation provides an alternative route diphenylphosphinoyl 1,2 diols 3 and 4, the two approaches are compared.
