The $O_sO_4$-catalyzed dihydroxylations of a monosubstituted allylic amine and $\gamma-amino-\alpha,\;\beta-unsaturated$ (E)-esters with bulky alkyl groups showed a high anti-selectivity. Since the acyclic conformation of N-acyloxy protected allylic amines was efficiently controlled by a bulky t-Bu or OBO ester group, the anti diastereoselectivity of >12.5:1 was obtained without applying a chiral reagent. The synthetic utility of the present method was demonstrated by a stereoselective and efficient synthesis of an $\alpha$-glucosidase inhibitor 15 from commercially available N-Cbz-L-serine 6 in 11 steps and 31% yield.

In this study, a highly diastereoselective synthesis of anti-1 ,2-aminoalcohol was explored starting from L-amino acids as chiral sources. The higher yield and diastereoselectivity was shown when the aza-Claisen rearranqement was performed with allylic trichloroacetimidate 6a in the presence of palldium(II) catalyst.

카이랄 ${\alpha},{\beta}$-불포화 N-Acyloxazolidinone은 Diels-Alder 반응의 친다이엔체로서 dialkylaluminium chloride 촉매하에서 높은 반응성과 부분입체선택성을 가지는 것이 이미 실험적으로 알려져 왔다. 제안된 Diels-Alder 반응의 메커니즘을 토대로 진행한 DFT 계산에서 dimethylaluminium chloride(이하 DMAC)는 $TiCl_4$에 비해 높은 endo 선택성을 띄는 반면, $TiCl_4$는 부분입체선택성에서 우세했다. 특히 DMAC는 현저히 낮은 활성화 에너지를 나타내어 이론적으로 반응속도의 측면에서 상당한 이득이 있음을 예측할 수 있다. 또한 chiral auxiliary로서 phenyl과 isopropyl은 구조적인 차이로 인해 선택성에서 역시 차이를 보였다. 계산화학적인 방법을 통한 입체선택적 Diels-Alder 반응의 분석은 알려진 메커니즘에 대한 명확한 증거를 제시할 뿐만 아니라 다른 유기합성 반응에 있어서 새로운 반응을 개발하는 데 이론적인 근거를 뒷받침 한다.

A stereoselective synthesis of $1\beta-aminocarbapenems$ (11a-c) starting from-4-acetoxy-2-axetidinone derivative 4 is described. 4-Acetoxy-2-azetidinone derivative (4) was reacted with lithium enolate of benzophenone limine of glycine phenyl ester (5f) to give alkylated product (R)-6f in good yield with high diastereoselectivity. The alkylated procudt (R)-6f was transformed to thioesters (7a-c) by transesterification with thiols, Thioesters (7a-c) were converted to their oxalimides (8a-c), followed by the phosphite-mediated reductive cyclization to give carbapenems (9a-c). Removal of all protecting groups of carbapenems (9a-c) afforded $1\beta-aminocarbapenems$ (11a-c).

The synthesis and catalytic application of a new class of a new class of planar chiral ferrocenes, 1,2-ferrocenediylazaphosphinines (1 and 2) are described. They are powerful ligands for the copper(I)-catalyzed asymmetric cyclopropanation of a range of alkenes with diazo esters to exhibit an exceptionally high degree of diastereoselectivity(~100% de) in favor of trans isomers, regardless the structure of the olefins and the diazo compounds. Comparative studies between 1 and 2 reveal that the former works better in terms of diastereocontrol. In contrast, however, enantioselectivity is low with both 1 and 2 as a whole although, in certain cases with a proper combination of the olefin and the diazo ester, high optical yields (up to 100% ee) can be achieved. Other reaction parameters such as the reaction temperature and the structure of the ligand do exhibit some influence, although infinitestimal, on both chemical and optical yields.

Synthesis of north-5'-methylbicyclo[3.1.0]hexyl adenine and hypoxanthine nucleosides with an ethenyl group at C3' position was successfully achieved by a highly facile method. Methylbicyclo[3.1.0]hexanone (${\pm}$)-7 with three contiguous chiral centers and its epimer (${\pm}$)-6 was remarkably simply constructed only by four steps involving a carbenoid insertion reaction in the presence of rhodium (II) acetate dimer as a metal catalyst, giving a correct relative stereochemistry of the generated three chiral centers. Due to steric hindrance from the concave face of the bicyclo[3.1.0]hexanone system, a Grignard reaction of (${\pm}$)-7 with ethenylmagnesium bromide showed exclusive diastereoselectivity towards the b-face. The Grignard reaction chemoselectively proceeded without reacting with ester functionality. Coupling reaction of glycosyl donor (${\pm}$)-11 with 6-chloropurine nucleobase afforded only the desired $N^9$-alkylated nucleoside without the formation of $N^7$-regioisomer. By the conventional method, 6-chloro group was converted into 6-amino and 6-hydroxy groups to give the desired adenine and hypoxanthine bicyclo[3.1.0]hexyl carbanucleosides with 3'-ethenyl group, respectively.

(2S,3R)-3-hydroxyhomoserine lactone (HSL) has been used as a key intermediate for the synthesis of various biologically active compounds. In this study, we demonstrated an efficient synthesis of HSL via anti selective dihydroxylation of a protected vinyl glycine analog with an oxabicyclo[2.2.2]octyl orthoester (OBO) ester group. Because the acyclic conformation of the substrate was efficiently controlled by the bulky OBO ester group, a diastereoselectivity of > 10 : 1 was obtained in the dihydroxylation reaction without the use of a chiral reagent. By using this result, the target compound 1 can be obtained from commercially available N-Cbz-L-serine 2 in seven steps with an overall yeid of 34%. This result could be applied to the stereoselective synthesis of biologically active molecules containing a vicinal amino diol moiety.
