✦ Synopsis
Asymmetric Simmons-Smith Cyclopropanation of α,β-Unsaturated Bornane-2,3-diol Acetals.
-Reaction of selected α,β-unsaturated aldehydes (II) with bornanediol (I) affords novel chiral acetals (III), which undergo diastereoselective cyclopropanation with a Simmons-Smith reagent giving compounds (V). -(KAYE,

Diastereoselective Cyclopropanation of α,β-Unsaturated Acetals of a Novel Camphor-Derived Chiral Auxiliary. -2-exo-3-exo-Dihydroxybornane-10-sulfonate (III) proves to be a highly efficient chiral auxiliary for the asymmetric Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation of α,βunsaturated acetal derivatives [cf.
The synthesis of the title optically active binaphthyl derivatives is presented and the usefulness of these substrates as chiral catalysts in the cyclopropanation and addition of Et2Zn to aldehydes is shown. Mechanistical aspects on the basis of NMR experiments are discussed in detail.
