The first directed reduction of beta-alkoxy ketones to anti-1,3-diol monoethers: identification of spectator and director alkoxy groups.

A new reduction procedure for the stereoselective reduction of certain beta-alkoxy ketones is described. The method relies upon electron-transfer reduction using samarium diiodide in THF with MeOH as an additive. Reduction is facile for a number of alkoxy

Acid catalyzed rearrangement of vinyl and ketene acetals

Substituted vinyl and ketene acetals undergo smooth oxygen-to-carbon rearrangement with a catalytic amount of TMSOTf to afford chain-extended ketones or esters, respectively. The developed procedure has been applied to the stereoselective synthesis of C-glycosides from the corresponding anomeric vinyl ethers.

Iridium-catalyzed crossed aldol coupling and a new concept to form an Ir-Si species

[Ir(COD)(PPh3)2]X (X=PF6, ClO4, and OTf) activated by H2 molecule catalyzes Mukaiyama-type aldol coupling between enoxysilanes and acetals or aldehydes. An Ir-Si species formed in the first stage of t
