NEW CARBON-CARBON BOND FORMATION THROUGH OXYALLYLATION OF ENOXYSILANES WITH SULFUR-DIOXIDE ADDUCT OF 1-METHOXYBUTADIENE - STEREOSELECTIVE SYNTHESIS OF (Z)-4-METHOXY-6-OXOALK-2-ENYL METHYL SULFONES
B. Deguin et al., NEW CARBON-CARBON BOND FORMATION THROUGH OXYALLYLATION OF ENOXYSILANES WITH SULFUR-DIOXIDE ADDUCT OF 1-METHOXYBUTADIENE - STEREOSELECTIVE SYNTHESIS OF (Z)-4-METHOXY-6-OXOALK-2-ENYL METHYL SULFONES, Tetrahedron letters, 38(35), 1997, pp. 6197-6200
Mixtures of 1-methoxybutadiene, trimethylsilyl enol ethers, SO2 and a
Lewis acid catalyst generate trimethylsilyl (Z)-4-methoxy-6-oxoalk-2-e
nesulfinates that can be converted into 4-methoxy-6-oxoalk-2-enyl meth
yl sulfones and 5-alkyl-4-methoxy-6-oxoalk-2-enyl methyl sulfones with
100% (Z) selectivity and good syn diastereoselectivity for the 5-alky
l and 4-methoxy substituents. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
