摘要
An approach to highly regiodivergent epoxide openings (REOs) is presented. The very popular kinetic resolutions of epoxides and openings of weso-epoxides constitute subclasses of such REOs. REOs are attractive for parallel resolutions, double asymmetric reactions of enantiomerically enriched epoxides, and for semisynthetic applications in the functionalization of natural products. They have been notoriously difficult to realize by means of SN2 mechanisms. Our titanocene-catalyzed radical REO addresses this issue by decoupling epoxide opening and radical trapping and is firmly based on a mechanistic study of the reductive epoxide opening. © 2007 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
