On January 4, 2017, Bohman, Bjorn; Flematti, Gavin R.; Unelius, C. Rikard published an article.SDS of cas: 3976-69-0 The title of the article was Practical one-pot stereospecific preparation of vicinal and 1,3-diols. And the article contained the following:
A facile one-pot synthesis providing vicinal diols and 1,3-diols in >95% stereoisomeric purity from com. available enantiopure hydroxy esters has been developed. The esters were reduced with DIBALH and alkylated in situ with 4-pentenylmagnesium bromide, which after workup generated the title diols as diastereomeric pairs. These pairs were easily separated by preparative chromatog., affording products with retained stereoisomeric purity from the starting materials. This method represents an expedient preparation of many common natural products, such as cerambycid beetle pheromones and intermediates towards bicyclic acetal bark beetle pheromones. The experimental process involved the reaction of (R)-Methyl 3-hydroxybutanoate(cas: 3976-69-0).SDS of cas: 3976-69-0
