✦ Synopsis


Enantioselective Synthesis of Flavonoids. Part 5. Poly-Oxygenated β-Hydroxydihydrochalcones.

-Epoxidation of enones (I) with urea hydrogen peroxide complex in the presence of poly-(L)-leucine leads to formation of the corresponding epoxides (II) with good levels of enantioselectivity. The following catalyzed ring opening reaction of (II) affords the title β-hydroxydihydrochalcones (III) without loss of optical purity. This approach is also successfully applied to the synthesis of ent-(III) using poly-(D)-leucine.
