Designing new chiral ketone catalysts. Asymmetric epoxidation of cis-olefins and terminal olefins
Tian, Hongqi,She, Xuegong,Yu, Hongwu,Shu, Lianhe,Shi, Yian
, p. 2435 - 2446 (2007/10/03)
This paper describes a new class of chiral oxazolidinone ketone catalyst for asymmetric epoxidation. High ee values have been obtained for a number of cyclic and acyclic cis-olefins. The epoxidation was stereospecific with no isomerization observed in the epoxidation of acyclic systems. Encouragingly high ee values have also been obtained for a number of terminal olefins. Mechanistic studies show that electronic interactions play an important role in stereodifferentiation.

Immobilisation of ketone catalyst: A method to prevent ketone catalyst from decomposing during dioxirane-mediated epoxidation of alkenes
Song,Lim,Kim,Lee,Chi
, p. 2415 - 2416 (2007/10/03)
Covalent attachment of trifluoromethyl ketone catalyst to a solid support such as silica gel increased the stability of catalyst dramatically, so solving an intrinsic problem of dioxirane-mediated epoxidation of alkenes catalysed by ketones.
Chiral acetals in organic synthesis: Regioselective synthesis of 2-and 3-hydroxy acetals from 2,3-olefinic acetals. Reinvestigation and further applications
Vankar, Yashwant D.,Reddy, M. Venkatram,Chaudhuri, Narayan C.
, p. 11057 - 11078 (2007/10/02)
Achiral as well as chiral 2,3-olefinic acetals are converted into 2- and 3- hydroxy acetals via LAH reduction of the corresponding epoxides and via bromohydrins followed by TBTH reductions respectively. Synthesis of 1,3-diones is described. Compounds from chiral systems are further utilized for asymmetric synthesis.
Addition of 2-(chloromagnesiomethyl)-2-alkenyl ethers to epoxides followed by Pd(0)-catalyzed cyclization: A one-pot synthesis of 3-methylenetetrahydropyrans
Van Der Louw,Van Der Baan,Out,De Kanter,Bickelhaupt,Klumpp
, p. 9901 - 9916 (2007/10/02)
Addition of 2-(chloromagnesiomethyl)-2-propenyl ethers 1a and 1b to epoxides 3 affords ring opening products 6 or 7 which are converted by Pd(0) to 3-methylenetetrahydropyrans 9. Cyclization of the addition products is best effected by a catalyst system generated in situ from Pd(OAc)2 and (i-PrO)3P.
A ROUTE TO 1-AZASPIRANS RELATED TO PERHYDROHISTRIONICOTOXIN
Thompson, Charles M.
, p. 979 - 990 (2007/10/02)
Described herein is a brief synthetic approach to 1-azaspirans.The key transformations in the sequence, starting from 2-cyclohexenone, employ a chelation-assisted regiochemical ring opening of an epoxide and the Lewis acid promoted, bishomoenolate dianion
REGIOSELECTIVE REDUCTIONS OF 2,3-EPOXY ACETALS WITH ZINC-CHLOROTRIMETHYLSILANE AND LITHIUM ALUMINIUM HYDRIDE: CONVENIENT SYNTHESIS OF 1,2 AND 1,3-DIONES
Vankar, Yashwant D.,Chaudhuri, Narayan C.,Rao, C. Trinadha
, p. 551 - 554 (2007/10/02)
A variety of 2,3-epoxy acetals have been found to undergo regioselective reductions with zinc-chlorotrimethylsilane and lithium aluminium hydride to give 2-hydroxy and 3-hydroxy acetals respectively.Their oxidation followed by hydrolysis furnished the corresponding 1,2- and 1,3-diones in good yields.
