2-STEP STEREOSELECTIVE CONVERSION OF 5-MONOSUBSTITUTED 1,3-DIOXOLAN-4-ONES INTO SELECTIVELY PROTECTED 2,3-ERYTHRO-1,2,3-TRIOLS - A ROUTE TOPOLYHYDROXYLATED MOLECULES
E. Untersteller et al., 2-STEP STEREOSELECTIVE CONVERSION OF 5-MONOSUBSTITUTED 1,3-DIOXOLAN-4-ONES INTO SELECTIVELY PROTECTED 2,3-ERYTHRO-1,2,3-TRIOLS - A ROUTE TOPOLYHYDROXYLATED MOLECULES, Tetrahedron letters, 35(16), 1994, pp. 2537-2540
5-Monosubstituted 1,3-dioxolan-4-one 1 are stereoselectively converted
into selectively protected 2,3-erythro-1,2,9-triols 3 via Tebbe methy
lenation, followed by hydroboration-oxidation.
