摘要

Abstract The pure R-(+)-enantiomer of 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor Zileuton was prepared by diastereoselective methyl Grignard addition to an aldonitrone bearing a D-gulofuranose- derived chiral auxiliary. Addition of the Lewis acid trimethylaluminum leads to a reversal of the alkylation stereochemistry and the potent pyrido analogue, R-(+)-RS-27871 was prepared in this way from an L-gulofuranose-derived nitrone.
