โฆ Synopsis
An efficient (21% overall yield), enantio-and diastereoselective. 11-step synthesis of (lS,2R)-imidazoleglycerol has been developed. The key steps are the stereoselective hydroxyiation of an acyloxazolidinone enolate, the alkylation of a thioester with (MOMOCHz)$uLi and the stereodivergent reduction of the resulting ketone. The scope of the reaction of the enolate derived from 10 with heteroatom electrophiles has been studied.
