A route to homochiral (S)-O-methyl mandelic acid and related α-alkoxy carboxylic acids from isopropylidene glycerol
Handa,Hawes,Pryce
, p. 2837 - 2845 (2007/10/02)
An improved synthesis of the useful ketones 7 is described. These ketones are then further modified via a highly stereospecific reduction to give homochiral α-alkoxy carboxylic acids which are useful chiral auxiliaries and intermediates.
