The epoxy-Ramberg-Baecklund reaction (ERBR): A sulfone-based method for the synthesis of allylic alcohols
Evans, Paul,Johnson, Paul,Taylor, Richard J. K.
, p. 1740 - 1754 (2007/10/03)
The epoxy-Ramberg-Baecklund reaction (ERBR) is outlined, in which α,β-epoxy sulfones are converted into a range of mono-, di- and tri-substituted allylic alcohols, on treatment with base. Modification of this method enabled the preparation of enantio-enriched allylic alcohols following the diastereoselective epoxidation of enantio-enriched vinyl sulfones that were accessed efficiently from the chiral pool. The scope, optimisation and limitations of the ERBR as a method for the preparation of allylic alcohols are discussed. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2006.
The Epoxy-Ramberg-Backlund reaction: A new route to allylic alcohols
Evans, Paul,Taylor, Richard J. K.
, p. 3055 - 3058 (2007/10/03)
A new variant of the Ramberg-Backlund reaction is described, the epoxy-Ramberg-Backlund reaction (ERBR), in which α,β-epoxysulfones, on treatment with base, are converted into a range of mono-, di- and tri-substituted allylic alcohols. The scope and limitations of the ERBR are discussed.
