Abstract: | The allylic and homoallylic alcohols 1 – 8 , prepared from (+)-camphor and (?)-fenchone, were ozonized in Et2O at ?78° and treated with Et3N or LiAlH4 to give the chiral hydroxy carbonyl compounds 9 – 16 and the diols 17 – 24 , respectively (Scheme 1). In the case of the diols 19 and 24 , the formation of new chiral centers proceeded with high diastereoselectivity. These diols were prepared highly diastereoselectively also by LiAlH4 reduction of the hydroxy carbonyl compounds 11 and 16a , respectively (Scheme 2). The absolute configuration of the new chiral centers in 19 and 24 was determined by X-ray and NMR methods. The ozonization of compounds 2 , 3 , 7 , and 8 provided the relatively stable hydroxy-substituted 1,2,4-trioxolane derivatives (ozonides) 37 – 40 (Scheme 5) which were characterized by 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra, ESI-MS, and natural-abundance 17O-NMR spectra. |
