Abstract

A diastereoselective three-component Passerini reaction (P-3CR) of chiral 2,3-epoxy aldehydes with tosylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) under benzoic acid conditions to afford densely substituted products in moderate to good yields and diastereomeric excess is reported.

Key words

diastereoselective Passerini reaction - chiral 2,3-epoxy aldehydes - tosylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) - three-component reaction (P-3CR) - benzoic acid

General Experimental Procedure.
To a stirred solution of the epoxy aldehyde (1.16 mmol) in CH₂Cl₂ (4 mL) was added benzoic acid (1.16 mmol) and TosMIC (1.04 mmol) at r.t. The reaction mixture was stirred for 48 h at the same temperature. After complete consumption of TosMIC, CH₂Cl₂ was removed to obtain a residue, which was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, 60-120 mesh, EtOAc-n-hexane, 8.5:1.5) to afford products 1a-9a in 50-79% yields.
