Palladium-Catalyzed Selective Reductive Ring Opening Reaction of Vinylsulfonyloxiranes with Formic Acid

摘要

Reductive ring opening reaction of (2-sulfonylvinyl)oxiranes was carried out selectively to give hydroxylalkenylsulfones in good yields.The method is used for the stereoselective preparation of C12-C22 segment of Amphidinolide Tl.
