Jlg. Ruano et al., ENANTIOMERICALLY PURE 3-P-TOLYLSULFINYL ACROLEIN AND CROTONALDEHYDE DIMETHYLACETALS - STEREOSELECTIVE REDUCTION OF BETA-KETO-GAMMA,GAMMA-DIALKOXYSULFOXIDES, Tetrahedron : asymmetry, 6(9), 1995, pp. 2299-2312
The synthesis of the title compounds by basic elimination on the O-der
ivatives of unsubstituted and alpha-methylated beta-hydroxy-gamma, gam
ma-dialkoxysulfoxides is reported. The study of the stereoselectivity
of DIBAL and DIBAL/ZnI2 reductions of the starting beta-ketosulfoxides
and their alpha-methylated derivatives is also presented.
