Hydroxy-Directed Hydroaluminations: A Stereoselective Approach to Cycloalkanols From β-Aryl Enones.

Various aryl substituted enones are reduced using lithium aluminum hydride to afford sterioselectively trans substituted alkanols.Mechanistic studies demonstrate 1,2-addition followed by hydroxy-directed hydroalumination of the conjugated styryl unit.

Studies in Antifertility Agents: Part XXVIII-1,2-trans-1-(p-(&β-Pyrrolidinoethoxy)phenyl)-2-substituted-benzyl-6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalenes

Substituted 2-benzyl-6-methoxy-1-tetralones (8-10), obtained by catalytic hydrogenation of 2-arylidene-1-tetralones (5-7), on NaBH4 reduction give a mixture of 1,2-trans-/cis-isomers of 2-benzyl-1-tetralols (11-13).Ac2O-pyridine treatment of 11 furnishes
