Abstract
Via a strategy of asymmetric reductive desymmetrization, chiral cis-epoxy naphthoquinols with multiple contiguous stereocenters and functional groups were synthesized with excellent enantioselectivities (96-99% ee) and diastereoselectivities (8/1-15/1). A combined asymmetric hydrogenation/transfer hydrogenation mechanism was proposed based on experimental results.
