Abstract

Kinetic resolution of (E)-1-trimethylsilylalk-1-en-3-ol by the Sharpless process, which proceeds with very large rate differences for the two isomers, combined with the reactivity of epoxysilyl compounds affords a practical, efficient method for preparation of four possible stereoisomers of secondary allylic alcohols.
