✦ Synopsis
Highly stereoselective hydrogenation of dibenzoylmethane in the presence of [RuCI2 {(R)-biphemp}] [biphemp = 2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-6,6'-dimethyl-l,l'-biphenyl], in ethanol-dichloromethane, gives enantiomerically pure (-)-1,3-diphenylpropane-1,3-diol (2) (70% yield); analysis of the CD spectra of the corresponding acetonide allows the absolute configuration of the diol to be established as (S,S). The direct HPLC separation of the

The (+)-and (-)-trans-3,4-dihydroxy-3,4-dihydrobenzo[c]phenanthrenes have been resolved and assigned absolute configuration by independent nmr and CD methods. Each was converted to its pair of diastereomeric bay-region 3,4-diol-1,2-epoxides in which the benzylic 4-hydroxyl group is either cis or tra
Each of the chiral 1,2-and 1,3-diols examined was derivatized exclusively to a single diastereomeric acetal by the use of a new axially chiral reagent, 2%-methoxy-1,1%-binaphthalene-8-carbaldehyde (MBC). The absolute configuration of the original 1,2-and 1,3-diols was determined by the NOE correlati
