Wu, Zijun published the artcileEnantioselective Medium-Ring Lactone Synthesis through an NHC-Catalyzed Intramolecular Desymmetrization of Prochiral 1,3-Diols, Safety of (R)-4-Hydroxy-8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15-octahydrodinaphtho[2,1-d:1′,2′-f][1,3,2]dioxaphosphepine 4-oxide, the publication is ACS Catalysis (2017), 7(11), 7647-7652, database is CAplus.
A highly enantioselective intramol. annulation reaction of 1,3-diols catalyzed by a triazolium N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) precatalyst is disclosed, affording the corresponding medium-sized lactones in moderate to good yields with high enantioselectivities. It is worth noting that this compatible catalytic system was successfully applied to assemble a broad range of chiral medium-sized lactones, including ones with eight-, nine-, ten-, eleven-, and twelve-membered rings.
