Asymmetric functionalisation of prochiral 1,3-diols based on an efficient 1,6-chiral induction: the diastereoselective C–O bond fission in chiral β-arylsulfinyl acetal via two types of chelation control
Abstract
The novel asymmetric functionalisation of a prochiral 1,3-diol is accomplished by the diastereoselective C–O bond fission of the chiral β-arylsulfinyl acetal via two types of chelation controlled transition states (A and C in Scheme 4).
