✦ Synopsis


Treatment of enantiomerically enriched epoxy mesylates 7-9 with potassium alkoxides under carefully controlled reaction conditions (18-crown-6, TI-IF, -78°C) provide the corresponding aalkoxyketones 10-13 without significant racemisation. The reactions are shown to proceed with net stereochemical inversion at the epoxide centie.
