- Highly Regioselective and Stereospecific Functionalization of 1,2-Proanediol with Trimethyl(X)silanes Employing the 1,3,2λ5-Dioxaphospholane Methodology
-
The regioselective ring opening of (S)-4-methyl-2,2,2-triphenyl-1,3,2λ5-dioxaphospholanes (2) was initiated with several trimethylsilyl reagents (Me3SiX: X = PhS, I, Br; Cl, CN, and N3) to afford the regioisomeric (silyloxy)phosphonium salts.A stereospecific extrusion of triphenylphosphine oxide from these oxyphosphonium salts gave predominatly the thermodynamically less stable C-2-X-substituted derivatives with nearly complete inversion of stereochemistry at the C-2 stereogenic center (i.e., X = PhS).
