Stereoselective synthesis of highly enantioenriched 3-methyl-2-cyclohexen-1-ones possessing an asymmetric quaternary carbon as C-4 or C-6: a sugar template …
The 1, 4-addition of the enolate generated from α-methylated acetoacetate incorporated at C- 4 of methyl 6-deoxy-2, 3-di-O-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-α-d-glucopyranoside to methyl vinyl ketone, followed by aldol condensation of the resulting 1, 4-addition product under two base- mediated conditions, provided 4-O-functionalized d-glucose derivatives with high diastereoselectivity. These products install a 3-methyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one-4-(or-6-) ...
