✦ Synopsis


The reaction of a series of 4,4-dimethyl-3,5,5-(R3, R2,

RI)-3-hydroxy-I,2-dioxolanes la-d [la (R,

with trimethyl phosphite or triphenylphosphine produced the p-hydro.xy ketones, 2a-d [(R,R#70H)CMe2-COR3], and the corresponding phosphoryl compounds in high yield. The reactions were slow (-24 hours), requiring excess of the trivalent phosphorus compounds for optimum results. The reaction was found to be of the second order overall, first order in peroxide and in phosphoms reagent. Triphenylphosphine was found to be more reactive than trimethyl phosphite.

A novel reaction system is described for the complete stereoselective addition of carbanionic nucleophiles to ,+hydroxy ketones. Controlling l,n-asymmetric induction in nucleophilic addition to acyclic carbonyl compounds is one of the most powerful and useful synthetic methods in organic chemistry.
