Chiral Syn-1,3-diol Derivatives via a One-Pot Diastereoselective Carboxylation/ Bromocyclization of Homoallylic Alcohols

Summary: Chiral syn-1,3-diols are fundamental structural motifs in many natural products and drugs. The traditional Narasaka-Prasad diastereoselective reduction from chiral β-hydroxyketones is an important process for the synthesis of these functionalized syn-1,3-diols, but it is of limited applicab...
