A syn selective dihydroxylation of cyclic allylic trichloroacetamides using catalytic osmium tetroxide

A range of cyclic allylic trichloroacetamides has been synthesised. Dihydroxylation utilising catalytic osmium tetroxide and quinuclidine-N-oxide monohydrate as the re-oxidant in dichloromethane yields diols with good levels of syn selectivity. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
