Riley,Silverstein
, p. 1171 - 1174 (1974)
The principal alarm pheromone of Atta texana S-(+)-4-methyl-3-heptanone, and its enantiomer have been prepared synthetically in high optical purity.
Synthesis of 5-[(Pentafluorosulfanyl)methyl]-γ-butyrolactones via a Silver-Promoted Intramolecular Cyclization Reaction
Roudias, Majdouline,Gilbert, Audrey,Paquin, Jean-Fran?ois
, p. 6655 - 6665 (2019/11/03)
The synthesis of 5-[(pentafluorosulfanyl)methyl]-γ-butyrolactones bearing different substituents at position 3 or 4 is reported. A silver-promoted intramolecular cyclization of substituted 4-chloro-5-(pentafluorosulfanyl)pentanoic acids allows the preparation of the substituted SF5-containing γ-butyrolactones in up to 96 % yield.
Synthesis of Enantiomerically Enriched 2-Hydroxymethylalkanoic Acids by Oxidative Desymmetrisation of Achiral 1,3-Diols Mediated by Acetobacter aceti
Brenna, Elisabetta,Cannavale, Flavia,Crotti, Michele,De Vitis, Valerio,Gatti, Francesco G.,Migliazza, Gaia,Molinari, Francesco,Parmeggiani, Fabio,Romano, Diego,Santangelo, Sara

The stereoselective desymmetrisation of achiral 2-alkyl-1,3-diols is performed by oxidation of one of the two enantiotopic primary alcohol moieties by means of Acetobacter aceti MIM 2000/28 to afford the corresponding chiral 2-hydroxymethyl alkanoic acids (up to 94 % ee). The procedure, carried out in aqueous medium under mild conditions of pH, temperature and pressure, contributes to enlarge the portfolio of enzymatic oxidations available to organic chemists for the development of sustainable manufacturing processes.
