Abstract
5beta-cholest-24-ene-3alpha,7alpha,12alpha-triol was efficiently conve rted to the corresponding (24R and 24S) isomers of eta-cholestane-3alp ha,7alpha,12alpha,24,25-pentols with the Os-catalyzed Sharpless asymme tric dihydroxylation process. Utilizing a new phthalazine class of cin chona alkaloid based ligands, namely (DHQD)2PHAL and (DHQ)2PHAL and th e use of methylsulfonamide for the acceleration of the reaction rate, the enantiomeric excess achieved ranged from 95-98%. The absolute conf igurations and enantiomeric excess of the eta-cholestane-3alpha,7alpha ,12alpha,24,25-pentols achieved were confirmed by the lanthanide-induc ed CD Cotton effect Measurements.
