Nickel-Catalyzed Enantioselective Synthesis of Pre-Differentiated Homoallylic syn- or anti-1,2-Diols from Aldehydes and Dienol Ethers.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Nickel catalysis allied with cyclodiphosphazane or VAPOL-derived phosphoramidite ligands provides selective access to monoprotected vicinal diols by reductive coupling of dienol ethers and aldehydes. The observed regioselectivity is unprecedented, in that the diene reacts at the least nucleophilic and most hindered C atom that is attached to the oxygen substituent rather than at the terminal position. Notably, both syn and anti diastereomers of the products can be accessed depending on the configuration of the diene partner with usually excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivity.
