A catalytic asymmetric synthesis of (S)-(-)-zearalenone is reported using asymmetric allylic alkylation for the introduction of the stereocenter. (S)-(-)-Zearalenone turned out to be a novel lipoxygenase inhibitor.

Carbon-carbon bond formation is the basis for the biogenesis of nature's essential molecules. Consequently, it lies at the heart of the chemical sciences. Chiral catalysts have been developed for asymmetric C-C bond formation to yield single enantiomers from several organometallic reagents. Remarkably, for extremely reactive organolithium compounds, which are among the most broadly used reagents in chemical synthesis, a general catalytic methodology for enantioselective C-C formation has proven elusive, until now. Here, we report a copper-based chiral catalytic system that allows carbon-carbon bond formation via allylic alkylation with alkyllithium reagents, with extremely high enantioselectivities and able to tolerate several functional groups. We have found that both the solvent used and the structure of the active chiral catalyst are the most critical factors in achieving successful asymmetric catalysis with alkyllithium reagents. The active form of the chiral catalyst has been identified through spectroscopic studies as a diphosphine copper monoalkyl species.
Copper catalyzed asymmetric synthesis of chiral allylic esters
Geurts, Koen,Fletcher, Stephen P.,Feringa, Ben L.

The complex derived from Taniaphos ligand 4 and CuBr?Me2S catalyzes the asymmetric addition of Grignard reagents to 3-bromopropenyl esters 1 to provide allylic esters 2 in high yields and high chemio-, regio-, and enantioselectivities. The work demonstrates that allylic asymmetric alkylation (AAA) can be done on substrates bearing a heteroatom at the γ-position. The method is a practical route to chiral, nonracemic allylic alcohols. The use of functionalized substrates 1 or Grignard reagents leads to more complex products 2, which can be further manipulated as demonstrated in conversion to (S)-5-ethyl-2(5H)-furanone 6 and (S)-benzoic acid-cyclopent-2-enyl ester 7.

Polyphenols, such as (+)-catechin and pyrogallol could be used to enhance stereochemical control in the lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of alkynol benzoate esters, leading to increased enantioselectivities in the kinetic resolution of alkynols with lipase Amano AH.
ANOMALOUS ADDITION OF TELLURIUM TETRACHLORIDE TO ALLYLIC ESTERS. SHORT SYNTHESIS OF TRANS-(2S,3S)-2,3-EPOXYBUTANE.
Engman
, p. 3977 - 3984 (2007/10/02)
The addition of tellurium to various allylic esters, alcohols, ethers, amides, and imino esters was studied. Allylic esters did not produce normal 1,2-chlorotelluration products, but the addition occurred 1,3 and was accompanied by a 1,2-migration of the acyloxy group. The examples include esters of allyl, alpha -methylallyl, alpha alpha -dimethylallyl, alpha -ethylallyl, methallyl, and (E)-crotyl alcohol, usually with benzoic acid but also with acetic, cinnamic, and crotonic acids.
