Anionic Domino Process for the One-Pot, Diastereoselective Synthesis of Dihydropyranols from β-Nitroalcohols
Publication History

Abstract
Bringing together β-nitroalkanols and cis-3-hexen-2,5-dione, in the presence of DBU as base and in acetonitrile as solvent, we achieved a one-pot diastereoselective synthesis of dihydropyranol derivatives. The nature of the latter compounds is consistent with the initial formation of a Michael adduct, followed by base-promoted elimination of nitrous acid leading to an allylic alcohol, which, finally, cyclises diastereoselectively to form a hemi-ketal functionality.
Key words
