β¦ Synopsis
Stereoselectivity in the Birch Reduction of 2-Furoic Acid Derivatives.
-Birch reduction of the chiral amide (I) of 2-furoic acid and following electrophilic quench gives the dihydrofuroic amides (III) with high diastereoselectivity. Acidic cleavage of the chiral auxiliary liberates the carboxylic acids (IV) of high enantiopurity. Surprisingly, the amide (V) derived from mild acidic quench of the Birch reduction is resistant to hydrolysis. -(DONOHOE, T.
