Abstract
Results The a-substituted a-hydroxy esters were synthesized in good overall yields from the corresponding unbranched a-hydroxy acids, using conventional methods. Thus, protection of the a-hydroxy acids la, b as their acetonides 2a, b, followed by alkylation with allylic bromides, gave dioxolanones 3a-c. Acid-catalyzed deprotection of 3a-c in EtOH afforded the desired a-hydroxy esters 4a-c (Scheme I).
