摘要
The synthesis of alpha-methyl-beta-hydroxy-delta-trichloromethyl-delta-valerolactone was achieved by an intramolecular Reformatsky reaction. The cyclisation was effected by samarium diiodide or (for the first time) ytterbium diiodide. The diastereoselectivity of the reaction corresponds to earlier investigations by Molander. Consecutive stereoselective reactions during the esterification to the Reformatsky precursor 1,1,1-trichloropent-4-en-2-yl 2-bromopropanoate and in the Reformatslcy reaction itself led to (3RS,4RS,6SR)-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-6-(trichloromethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one (3a) as the major formed diastereomer. The influence of the orientation of the substituents in the transition state is discussed. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
