Ar. Hajipour et F. Islami, HIGHLY DIASTEREOSELECTIVE SYNTHESIS OF OPTICALLY-ACTIVE ALKANE AND ARENESULFINATE ESTERS OF DIACETONE D-GLUCOSE (DAG) FROM CORRESPONDING DISULFIDES, Indian Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry, 7(4), 1998, pp. 299-300
A one step synthesis of chiral alkane and arenesulfinate esters (2) fr
om lead tetraacetate and corresponding disulfides (1) is reported. The
yields are modest to excellent and diastereoselectivity is high.
