Significance
A synthetic pathway leading to δ-hydroxy esters in good yields is reported. N-Allylidene-1,1-diphenylethanamine is used as an acrolein equivalent which reacted with ketene silyl acetals and 2-allyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane in subsequent 1,4- and 1,2-double nucleophilic additions.
Comment
The best results were obtained by initially mixing all reagents in methylene chloride at -78 ˚C and adding water after 1.5 hours. The diastereoselectivities are not always high.
