โœฆ Synopsis


Aldol reaction of aldehydes with difluomketene ethyl trimethylsilyl acetal (1) in the presence of a substoichiometric amount of chiral Lewis acid 2 or 3 provides the corresponding ~,a-difluom hydroxy esters 4-12 with high enantioselectivitles (up to 98% ee). Reaction temperature has a great influence on the enantiofacial selection of aldehydes; the reactions of benzyloxyacetaldehyde catalyzed by Lewis acid 2 at -78 and -30"C gave the (+)-and (-)-ยขx,~-difluom ~hydroxy esters 7 in optical yields of 98% and 85%, respectively.

A highly enantioselective cyclization of prochiral unsaturated aldehydes has been accomplished with a chiral zinc reagent derived from dimethylzinc and (R)-(+)-l,l'-bi-2-naphthol. Of the available methods for constructing multicarbocyclic structures, cationic polyolefin cyclization, a synthetic str
