Enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of syn -β-hydroxy-α- vinyl carboxylic esters via reductive aldol reactions of ethyl allenecarboxylate with 10-tms-9-borabicyclo[3.3.2]decane and DFT analysis of the hydroboration pathway

摘要

An enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of syn-β-hydroxy-α- vinyl carboxylate esters 3 via the reductive aldol reaction of ethyl allenecarboxylate (2) with 10-trimethylsilyl-9-borabicyclo[3.3.2]decane (1R) has been developed. Density functional theory calculations suggest that the allene hydroboration involves the 1,4-reduction of 2 with the 1R, leading directly to dienolborinate Z-(O)-8a.
