Abstract
Reduction of bicyclic ketal 1 gave functionalized pyran derivatives 7a or 7b in a highly stereoselective manner, depending upon the reduction conditions utilized. For example, treatment of ketal 1 with TiCl4/Et3SiH produced exclusively diol 7b with the 2,5-syn relationship in good yield. Alternatively, reduction of ketal 1 by DIBALH gave 2,5-anti-diol 7a stereoselectively. Alane reductions of ketal 1 were highly stereoselective also; however, the syn/anti selectivity observed was strongly dependent on the ratio of reagents employed for in situ generation of the alane. Lewis acid catalyzed allylation of ketal 1 gave pyran 10 in a stereospecific alkylation reaction.
