Abstract
Compounds 12-15, meso-type 2,3,4,5,6,7-hexasubstituted octane derivatives, have been synthesized using solely substrate-based asymmetric induction. Th anks to the specific relative configurations at the six stereogenic centres , these compounds have a high tendency to populate the conformation with a fully extended zig-zag backbone chain.
