✦ Synopsis


The reactivity of 5-methyl-4-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)-5H-furan-2-one with aldehydes and with acyl chlorides followed by reduction was studied. The aldol condensation gave predominantly the anti aldol product when the acylation -reduction sequence led exclusively to the syn product. The use of a chiral pyrrolidine, (S)-2-methoxymethylpyrrolidine (SMP), allowed the synthesis of enantio-enriched compounds, the acylation -reduction leading to the (R,R) addition product.

The crystal structure of the racemic title compound, C~12~H~12~O~3~, allowed the determination of the relative configuration at the two stereogenic centers. For the __R,R__ isomer, the O—C—C—O and C—C—C—C torsion angles around the bond between the two methine C atoms are 62.38 (15) and −175.49 (13)°
