Substrate-directed diastereoselective hydroformylations, 1: Substrate-directed diastereoselective hydroformylation of methallylic alcohols - Development of an efficient catalyst-directing group for rhodium-catalyzed hydroformylation
Breit, Bernhard
, p. 1841 - 1851 (1997)
The development of an efficient catalyst-directing group based on ortho-diphenylphosphanyl benzoate (o-DPPB) for the substrate-directed, diastereoselective hydroformylation of methallylic alcohols 5 is described. The hydroformylation of methallylic o-DPPB esters 9 provides the corresponding syn-aldehydes 10 with diastereoselectivities of up to 96:4. A specific steric demand of the substituent at the stereogenic center of the methallylic derivatives 9 was found to be necessary to achieve a high degree of stereoselectivity. Experiments have been performed that prove that the o-DPPB group acts as a catalyst-directing group by reversibly coordinating to the catalyst. The removal of the o-DPPB group was accomplished by means of alkaline hydrolysis, thereby furnishing the lactols 6. Oxidation of 6 provides the corresponding γ-lactones 7.

Stereoselective Thermal Reactions between (E)-1-Alkoxymethoxybut-2-enyl(tributyl)stannanes and Aldehydes

(E)-1-Methoxymethoxybut-2-enyl(tributyl)stannane (6), readily available by the addition of tributylstannyl-lithium to crotonaldehyde and alkylation of the adduct using chloromethyl methyl ether, reacts on heating with aldehydes to give anti-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-cis-1,2-enol ethers.These on hydrolysis and oxidation provide trans-4,5-disubstituted butyrolactones.

(1R)- and (1S)-1--(E)-but-2-enyl(tributyl)stannanes (8) and (9), whose configurations were assigned by correlation with (2R)- and (2S)-pentan-2-ol (14) and (15), react stereoselectively on heating with benzaldehyde to give (3S,4S)- and (3R,4R)-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-(Z)-1,2-enol ethers (16) and (18), respectively, the configurations of these products being established by correlation with pseudoephedrine.
On The Use of E-1-Methoxymethoxybut-2-enyl(tri-n-butyl)stannane as a threo-Selective, Homo-enolate Equivalent
Pratt, Andrew J.,Thomas, Eric J.
, p. 1115 - 1117 (2007/10/02)
(E)-1-Methoxymethoxybut-2-enyl(tri-n-butyl)stannane, readily available by addition of tri-n-butylstannyl-lithium to crotonaldehyde, and protection of the alcohol so formed using chloromethyl methyl ether, reacts on heating with aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes to give threo-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-cis-1,2-enol ethers, hydrolysis and oxidation of which provides a stereoselective route to trans-4,5-disubstituted butyrolactones.
