One-pot catalytic asymmetric synthesis of pyranones.


ABSTRACT: Enantioenriched pyranones are important intermediates in the synthesis of natural products and the generation of compound libraries. A one-pot method for their synthesis is outlined. Catalytic asymmetric alkylation of 2-furfurals in the presence of catalytic (-)-MIB generates enantioenriched furyl zinc alkoxides. Addition of water/THF followed by NBS results in formation of pyranones with ee's >90% and yields between 46-77%.
