(Diene)Rh(I) complexes catalyze the stereoselective three-component coupling of silyl glyoxylates, arylboronic acids, and aldehydes to give glycolate aldol products. The participation of Rh-alkoxides in the requisite Brook rearrangement was established through two component Rh-catalyzed couplings of silyl glyoxylates with ArB(OH) to give silyl-protected mandelate derivatives. The intermediacy of a chiral Rh-enolate was inferred through enantioselective protonation using a chiral Rh-catalyst. Diastereoselective three-component couplings with aldehydes as terminating electrophiles to give racemic products were best achieved with a bulky aryl ester on the silyl glyoxylate reagent. Optimal enantioselective couplings were carried out with the tert-butyl ester variant using an anisole-derived enantiopure tricyclo[3.2.2.0 ]nonadiene ligand.

Fermented beverages, particularly wines, exhibit variable concentrations of organic and phenolic acids, posing challenges in their accurate determination. Traditionally, enzymatic methods or chromatographic analyses, mainly high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), have been employed to quantify these compounds individually in the grape must or wine. However, chromatographic analyses face limitations due to the high sugar content in the grape must.

Novel approach to A-ring synthon for Pd-catalyzed synthesis of 1α-hydroxylated vitamin D metabolites.

J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol

Endotherm Life Science Molecules, 66123 Saarbruecken, Germany. Electronic address:

A novel approach to an A-ring synthon for Pd-catalyzed synthesis of 1α-hydroxylated vitamin D metabolites is described. Key step is an asymmetric glyoxylate ene reaction to access a highly diastereomerically pure α-hydroxy ester. Subsequent stereospecific transformation to an anti-1,3-diol and appropriate chemical modifications at both ends of the acyclic precursor leads to a diastereomerically and enantiomerically pure silylated anti-1,3-diol enyne, serving as a versatile A-ring synthon for its use in vitamin D synthesis.

A chiral Lewis acid-catalyzed enantioselective addition of thiols to silyl glyoxylates was developed. The reaction proceeds well with a broad range of thiols and acylsilanes, affording the target tertiary chiral α-silyl-α-sulfydryl alcohols with multi-hetero-atom carbon stereocenters in excellent yields (up to 99%) and enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee). A series of control experiments were conducted to elucidate the reaction mechanism.

Department of Chemistry, Key Laboratory of Green and Precise Synthetic Chemistry, Ministry of Education, Huaibei Normal University, Huaibei, Anhui 235000, P.R. China.

A novel hydrogen-bond-assisted sequential reaction of silyl glyoxylates is described. This method provides an efficient strategy for the synthesis of silyl enol ethers with high selectivity. In these transformations, hydrogen bonds from 2-nitroethanol and its derivatives are critical to the stereochemical outcome.
