(Chemical Equation Presented) The new macrocycle 9 (>70% yield from hydroxythiol 10) was treated with several nucleophilic reagents (RMgX, RLi, and LiAlH4) affording carbinols 12a-j (80-96% yield, >99:1 dr). Oxidative hydrolysis of 12a,c,e, followed by LiAlH4 reduction of the resulting mixture, gave 16a,c,e in >95% ee,16c being a key precursor for the preparation of fungicide 17. The absolute configuration of 9 and 12j (Nu = H) was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and chemical correlation.

The enantioselective synthesis of several 1-phenyl-1,2-ethanodiol derivatives using 2-benzoyl-1,3-oxathiane 1 as a chiral auxiliary is described. Nucleophilic additions of Grignard reagents, methyl lithium and LS-Selectride on benzoyloxathiane 1 proceeded in >95% diastereomeric ratio (dr) affording the corresponding tertiary carbinols, which were successively hydrolyzed and reduced to give the title derivatives in >95% enantiomeric excess (ee).
Highly diastereoselective nucleophilic additions using a novel myrtenal-derived oxathiane as a chiral auxiliary

The synthesis of novel oxathiane 3 and its acetyl derivative 12, from commercially available (-)-myrtenal 4, is described. The addition of several nucleophilic reagents to 12 furnished the corresponding tertiary carbinols in highly diastereomeric excess. The hydrolysis of 11a, b yielded the expected α-hydroxycarbonyl compounds in excellent enantiomeric excess.
