Abstract
Two complimentary approaches to the key (-)-(2R)-cis-tosylate 1 and it s (+)-(2S)-enantiomer 15 via generation of chiral imide enolates havin g a 2,2-disubstituted olefin functionality in the P-position, are desc ribed. In a ''protecting group free'' sequence, reaction of the titani um enolate generated from (4R)-benzyl-2-oxazolidinone derived imide 5b with s-trioxane provided a convenient intermediate 19 which could be directly subjected to 2,4-diastereoselective iodocyclization.
