1,3-versus 1,4-asymmetric induction in Mukaiyama-Michael additions of optically active ketene acetals to 2-methylcyclopent-2-en-1-one: a remarkable inversion of facial selectivity
E. Gorobets et al., 1,3-versus 1,4-asymmetric induction in Mukaiyama-Michael additions of optically active ketene acetals to 2-methylcyclopent-2-en-1-one: a remarkable inversion of facial selectivity, TETRAHEDR L, 42(6), 2001, pp. 1135-1138
TrSbCl6-catalyzed addition of selected optically active ketene acetals to 2
-methylcyclopent-2-en-1-one for steroid synthesis is described. Inversion o
f facial selectivity in 1,3- and 1,4-asymmetric induction was observed. (C)
