A convenient synthesis of dehydroquinic acid and its corresponding methyl ester are described. Protection of the trans diol of quinic acid, followed by PCC oxidation, gave fully protected dehydroquinic acid. This gave methyl dehydroquinate on mild acid ca

Methyl 1,4,5-tris(trimethylsilyl)-3-dehydroquinate was synthesized in a three-step procedure and condensed with various nucleophiles (-CH2COOEt, -CH2SO2Ph, -CH2-CCH, H-).The diastereoselectivity of the reaction, leading to the creation of a new quaternary (or tetiary) asymmetric carbon atom was examined.The preferential axial attack on the C=O group of the cyclohexanone system is discussed.The deprotected products were evaluated as DHQase inhibitors. - Keywords: methyl 3-dehydroquinate; nucleophilic addition; diastereoselectivity.
