Abstract: | Asymmetric borane-reduction of 3-acetyl-131-oxo-tetrapyrroles (=bacteriochlorin, chlorin and porphyrin) in the presence of a chiral source gave selectively chiral 3-(1-hydroxyethyl)-131-oxo-tetrapyrroles. Oxazaborolidines were effective as chiral auxiliaries. Reduction with (S)-oxazaborolidines led to the (31S)-alcohol as the major product, whose stereoselectivity was the opposite of that in the same asymmetric reduction of usual prochiral ketones ArCOR. The asymmetric reduction of the 3-acetyl group in methyl bacteriopyropheophorbide-a and the 7,8-oxidation afforded 31-epimeric methyl (31S)-bacteriopheophorbide-d (89% de). |
