Highly enantioselective rearrangement of quaternary carbon-containing meso-epoxides to allylic alcohols
The asymmetric synthesis of 4-substituted cis-4-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopent-2-en-1-ols 3 (R = alkyl, benzyloxymethyl) via highly enantioselective rearrangement of 3-substituted cis-6-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-3-methanols 1 (R = alkyl, benzyloxymethyl) is described.
