Reactions of (R)-4-Menthen-3-one with Aluminum and Boron-Containing Hydrides

It was shown that the most effective and stereospecific hydride reductant for (R)-4-menthen-3-one to (1R,3R)-menthen-3-ol was i-Bu2AlH whereas the complex BH3·THF, which exhibited the same properties relative to the substrate carbony

Synthetic studies of didemnaketal analogue - Construction of the (+)- and (-)-5,6-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-octanal intermediates

A synthetic procedure for construction of the (+)-(3R,5R,6R)-5,6- dihydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-octanal and (-)(3S,5S,6S)-5,6-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethyl- octanal derivatives, the intermediates for synthesis of the HIV-active di- demnaketal analogue, was developed via a series of reactions from the natural (-)-menthone.
