A concise asymmetric total synthesis of dihydroisocoumarins such as 6-methoxymellein, kigelin and fusarentin 6,7-dimethyl ether in high enantiopurity have been achieved from non-chiral aldehydes by employing proline catalysed asymmetric α-aminoxylation reaction. The required stereochemistry of hydroxyl group have been generated by alternating L or D proline as a organocatalyst in α-aminoxylation step and lactone ring is assembled by oxa-Pictet-Spengler cyclisation reaction as the key steps.
Simple method for the preparation of esters from Grignard reagents and alkyl 1-imidazolecarboxylates

The reaction of Grignard reagents with alkyl imidazolecarboxylates, which were prepared from alcohols with carbonyl diimidazole, gave the corresponding esters in good to excellent yields. This method conveniently provides esters from alkyl halides and alcohols by C1-carbon chain extension.
