Abstract

INTRODUCTION Chiral alcohols are important building blocks used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, pheromones, flavors and fragrances. They can also act as chiral auxiliaries in asymmetric synthesis of chiral molecules [1]. Much attention has been driven to the preparation of chiral allylic and propargilic alcohols, which can be further functionalized with the aim of bringing about the synthesis of more complex molecules [2]. A key method ...
