Butane-2,3-diacetal-desymmetrized glycolic acid - A new building block for the stereoselective synthesis of enantiopure α-hydroxy acids

According to a chiral memory protocol, a chiral glycolic acid equivalent, the butane-2,3-diacetal-desymmetrized glycolate 2, is obtained from chiral 3-halopropane-1,2-diols 1. Compound 2 is a new and effective building block for the synthesis of mono- and

Total Synthesis of (+)-Prunustatin A: Utility of Organotrifluoroborate-Mediated Prenylation and Shiina MNBA Esterification and Macrolactonization to Avoid a Competing Thorpe-Ingold Effect Accelerated Transesterification

A convergent total synthesis of (+)-prunustatin A is described through the assembly of two key fragments and a macrolactonization. Shiina MNBA couplings were used for the formation of each of the four ester bonds in the tetralactone ring, including the key macrocyclization which was essential to minimize competing Thorpe-Ingold accelerated transesterification. Other key steps included an organoboron-based prenylation using potassium prenyltrifluoroborate and a carbonyldiimidazole-mediated coupling to form the salicylamide.

Asymmetric Assembly of All-Carbon Tertiary/Quaternary Nonadjacent Stereocenters through Organocatalytic Conjugate Addition of α-Cyanoacetates to a Methacrylate Equivalent

An efficient, highly diastereo- and enantioselective assembly of acyclic carbonyl fragments possessing nonadjacent all-carbon tertiary/quaternary stereoarrays is reported based on a Br?nsted base catalyzed Michael addition/α-protonation sequence involving α-cyanoacetates and 2,4-dimethyl-4-hydroxypenten-3-one as novel methacrylate equivalent.
