Abstract
Acrylic esters of homoallylic alcohols prepared in 92-97% ee via the asymmetric allylboration of appropriate aldehydes with B- allyldiisopinocampheylborane, when refluxed in dichloromethane in the presence of 10 mol% of Grubbs' catalyst provided the natural enantiomers of (S)-(+)-parasorbic acid, (R)-(-)-massoia lactone, and (R)-(+)goniothalamin. (S)-(-)-Hexadecanolide was prepared by hydrogenating the corresponding lactenone synthesized using the above sequence. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
