Stereoselective VO(acac)(2) Catalyzed Epoxidation of Acyclic Homoallylic Diols. Complementary Preparation of C2-syn-3,4-Epoxy Alcohols.


ABSTRACT: A substrate-controlled stereoselective epoxidation of free and monoprotected homoallylic diols was developed. This second-generation approach is based on the incorporation of a primary hydroxy directing group at the C2 methyl carbon, which changes the nature of the vanadium ester intermediate providing a new diastereoselectivity manifold for the preparation of 3,4-epoxy alcohols. This modification favored the formation of the challenging C2-syn epoxy alcohol product not previously available using the standard homoallylic alcohol substrates. These new epoxy alcohol diastereomers expand the scope and generality for the utilization of 3,4-epoxy alcohols as precursors for stereoselective polypropionate synthesis.
