Both antipodes of α-methyl-α-methoxyarylacetic acid derivatives were prepared from a common chiralpool precursor l-(+)-tartaric acid. The key step involves the addition of Grignard reagents to 1,4-diketones derived from tartaric acid. The utility of this

, p. 546 - 548 (2007/10/03)
Chiral tertiary dichloromethylcarbinol derivatives 2, prepared from protected chiral secondary alcohols 1, were converted stereospecifically into chiral quaternary α-oxygenated aldehyde derivatives 4 and 11 via intermediary α-chloroepoxides 3 under weakly
