Synthesis and stereochemistry of some new derivatives of cis-dihydropinol

1999

Abstract The synthesis of four new derivatives of cis-hydroxy-cis-dihydropinol with allyl-, epoxyalkyl-, hydroxyalkyl- and ketoalkyl-groups substituted on the cyclohexane ring is presented. The cis-orientation of hydroxyl group at C-2 and the configuration of all stereogenic centers is confirmed by X-ray crystallography.
