Abstract
The scope of the asymmetric silyl transfer to unsaturated lactones utilising a C2-symmetric NHC-Cu(I) catalyst has been established and kinetic resolutions mediated by silyl transfer have been used to prepare enantiomerically enriched anti-4,5-disubstituted 5-membered lactones. The method has been exploited in an expedient synthesis of (+)-blastmycinone.Entities:
