Abstract
Methyl 1,4,5-tris(trimethylsilyl)-3-dehydroquinate was synthesized in a three-step procedure and condensed with various nucleophiles (-CH2CO OEt, -CH2SO2Ph, -CH2-C=CH, H-). The diastereoselectivity of the reacti on, leading to the creation of a new quaternary (or tertiary) asymmetr ic carbon atom aas examined. The preferential axial attack on the C=O group of the cyclohexanone system is discussed. The deprotected produc ts were evaluated as DHQase inhibitors.
