Abstract

An array of examples of diastereoselective, phosphate-tether-mediated ring-closing metathesis reactions, which highlight the importance of product ring size and substrate stereochemical compatibility, as well as complexity, is reported. Studies focus primarily on the formation of bicyclo[n.3.1]phosphates, involving the coupling of C2-symmetric dienediol subunits with a variety of simple, as well as complex, alcohol partners. Phosphate-tether mediation: An array of examples of diastereoselective, phosphate-tether-mediated ring-closing metathesis reactions, which highlight the importance of product ring size and substrate stereochemical complexity, is reported (see scheme). Bicyclo[n.3.1]phosphates can be prepared utilizing the tripodal coupling of C2-symmetric dienediol subunits with a variety of simple, as well as complex alcohol partners.
