β¦ Synopsis
Derivatives of 2-C-branched-chain erythrono-1 ,Clactones of the type 1 have been synthesized under reductive conditions using DIBAL from the oxetane 2, which is easily accessible from diethyl mesoxalate (4) and 2,2-diisopropyl-1,3-dioxole (3) in high yield by means of a catalytic cycloaddition. Similarly, 2 rearranges in presence of A1Me3 under formation of an erythronolactone with an additional branching at C(4). The corresponding oxetanes 7-9 from ethyl pyruvate (5) and ethyl trimethylpyruvate (6), respectively, have been studied with regard to their reductions yielding building blocks of branched-chain sugars.
