摘要

(S)-(−)-Diisopropyl phenylthiosuccinate (81% optical purity) is prepared in 95% yield by the asymmetric Michael addition of thiophenol to diisopropyl maleate in the presence of a catalytic amount of cinchonine. The succinate thus prepared is transformed into (R)-(+)-3, 4- epoxy-1-butanol without racemization.
