✦ Synopsis


Organocopper reagents react with a chiral nonracemic 1,3-dioxan-4-one to afford substitution products with high diastereoselectivity.

After treatment of the adducts with potassium t-butoxide, optically active secondary alcohols are obtained. Recently a new chiral, nonracemic acetal for use in the formation of optically active secondary alcohols was described by Seebach et al. (eq 1J.I Several features of the 1,3-dioxan-4-one functional group

were outlined that suggested these chiral auxiliaries may be preferred to related acetals that have seen widespread use in organic synthesis.2-4

## Abstract Optically active 2,3‐epoxyhexanol obtained from Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation (AE) was regioselectively reduced to 1,3‐hexandiol or 1,2‐hexandiol. 1,3‐Hexandiol was converted to 3‐mesyloxyhexyl acetate. The following reaction with CH~3~SK gave 3‐methylthiohexanol, which was oxidized
