Abstract

Abstract: Reduction of sterically unbiased 2-phenyl-2-(4-X-phenyl) cyclopentanones 1 (X= NOz, Br, CI, OCH3, OH, NH,) with either sodium borohydride in methanol or lithium borohydride in tetrahydrofuran at 0 OC produced diastereomeric cyclopentanols 2 in cis/trans ratios varying from 79: 21 to 30: 70 as determined by IH and I3C NMR spectroscopy. These ratios correspond to an overall energy difference of 1.3 kcal/mol. In ...
