Abstract
A new and efficient method for the preparation of four possible stereoisomers of β-alkylhomoallylic alcohols 1 has been developed which is based on the diastereoselective addition of nucleophiles to optically active α-alkyl-β-trimethylsilyl-β,γ-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. The utility of this reaction is demonstrated by the synthesis of naturally occurring serricornin and corynomycolic acid.
