1,cis-2-Dihydroxycyclohexa-3,5-diene-1-carboxylic acid, 2, produced by Pseudomonas putide, U103, was shown via X-ray analysis of its p-bromobenzoylmethyl ester to have (1S 2R) absolute stereochemistry.The stereo- and regio-selectivity of a series of cycloadditions of the methyl ester 3 (R = Me) the methyl ester acetonide 5 and the hydroxymethylacetonide 6 (R = H) with singlet oxygen, 4-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3,5-dione, N-phenylmaleimide and nitrosobenzene have been established.The stereochemistry of the oxygen adduct 7 of 5 was unambiguously assigned by X-ray analysis of 7.The acetonides 5 and 6 (R = H) were attacked by the dienophiles anti to the acetonide group.The diol ester 3 underwent attack on the face syn to the diol groups.The regiochemistry of the addition of nitrosobenzene was predominantly with the N-phenyl group distal to the ester function in 3 and 5, but proximal to the hydroxymethyl group in 6 (R = H).
