✦ Synopsis
The samarium diiodide pinacol coupling of benzaldehyde diastereoselectivities of up to 7:1, while with cyclohexanecarboxaldehyde a stereoselectivity of up to 10:1 was and cyclohexanecarboxaldehyde in the presence of a variety of polyethylene glycols, including derivatives containing observed but in favor of the threo-isomer. This divergence in the stereoselectivity of these two aldehydes suggests the carbohydrates has been studied. Whereas such complexing agents allow for the formation of 1,2-diols, in the case of presence of two different mechanisms occurring in these pinacol coupling reactions. benzaldehyde the erythro-isomer predominates with ether (tetraglyme) or dibenzyl ether to SmI 2 resulted in the [a
