摘要

The coupling of the two optically active subunits 13 and 8a-c20 required a chelation-controlled aldol reaction2' to achieve high levels of stereochemical efficiency. Although the reactions between the trimethylsilyl enol ether derived from the methyl ketone 13 and the protected aldehydes 8a-c in the presence of SnCl, (CH,Cl,, -78 - -20 "C) provided mixtures of the adducts 14 and 15 in which the desired diastereoisomer 14 dominated by as much as 9:1, the yields ...
