Methyl 1,4,5-tris(trimethylsilyl)-3-dehydroquinate was synthesized in a three-step procedure and condensed with various nucleophiles (-CH2COOEt, -CH2SO2Ph, -CH2-CCH, H-).The diastereoselectivity of the reaction, leading to the creation of a new quaternary (or tetiary) asymmetric carbon atom was examined.The preferential axial attack on the C=O group of the cyclohexanone system is discussed.The deprotected products were evaluated as DHQase inhibitors. - Keywords: methyl 3-dehydroquinate; nucleophilic addition; diastereoselectivity.
