摘要
A catalytic diastereoselective sulfonium ylide epoxidation of aldehydes furnished original vinyl epoxides, having an MBH backbone. These highly functionalised building blocks were used for a formal synthesis of the antibiotic conocandin, and opened up a stereodivergent route towards beta-hydroxy-alpha-methylene lactones, core units of naturally occurring compounds. Under acidic conditions, the oxiranes were mainly transformed, with moderate to good yields, into trans beta-hydroxy-alpha-methylene lactones. On the other hand, a user-friendly palladium-catalysed CO2 insertion and cyclisation sequence gave the cis beta-hydroxy-alpha-methylene lactone counterparts along with an interesting cis-trans equilibration of the pi-allyl intermediates.
