Abstract

Unlike the enolboration-aldolization of methyl propanoate, the choice of either the solvent or temperature determines the diastereoselectivity during the enolboration-aldolization of methyl phenylacetate. In CH(2)Cl(2), the reaction favors the anti-pathway at -78 °C and the syn-pathway at rt. Conversely, the reaction produces the anti-isomer up to rt and the syn-isomer at refluxing temperatures in nonpolar solvents.
