Regioselective hydrogenation of 1,2-indanedione yielding rac-2-hydroxy-1-indanone was investigated using heterogeneous Pt and Pd as catalysts. Five consecutive experiments were carried out for studying the performance of Pd/Al2O3. Pr

Enantiomerically pure cis-glycols, derived through the microbial metabolism of hydrocarbons, represent a valuable chiral pool for the synthesis of cis β-amino alcohols. One generally applicable route to these important chiral intermediates is described. Reaction of the metabolically formed diol with α-acetoxyisobutyryl chloride affords regio- and stereoselectively a single trans-1,2-chlorohydrin acetate isomer. Displacement of chloride by azide, aminolysis of the ester and reduction of the azide provides the requisite amino alcohols. This 4-step route is highly efficient and affords the cis β-amino alcohol enantiomers in 41-57% overall yields. Using the highly enantiopure amino alcohols diastereomeric oxazaborolidines were prepared with both (-)-(S)- and (+)-(R)-[2-(1-methoxyethyl)phenyl]boronic acids. As described herein, these derivatives are potentially useful for absolute configurational assignments to cis amino alcohols.

Xenon difluoride (XeF2) reacts with indene in 1,2-dimethoxyethane-water (90:10) to give cis- and trans-2-fluoro-1-hydroxyindans.Our data indicate that neither xenon oxide (XeO) nor hydroxyxenon fluoride (HOXeF) is an intermediate in this reaction even though XeO is a suspected intermediate from aqueous hydrolysis of XeF2.
