✦ Synopsis


The Synthesis of Alkenes via epi-Phosphonium Species. Part 1. An anti-Wittig Elimination.

-Phosphinyl alcohols (II) and (V), prepared by the reduction of syn-and anti-phosphinoyl alcohols (I) and (IV), give upon treatment with PCl 3 and Et 3 N (Z)-and (E)-alkenes, correspondingly, by anti-elimination reactions. An attempted synthesis of antimitotic agent (Z)-combretastatin from syn-isomer (VII) fails. Instead of the expected corresponding syn-phosphinyl alcohol, the (E)-elimination product (VIII) is obtained. An alternative synthesis of 1,2-phosphinyl alcohols from the corresponding phosphine-borane complexes is demonstrated for syn alcohol (XIV) which gives the expected alkene (XV) with a marked lack of stereospecificity. -
