Description/Abstract

Tamed by chelation: The MgBr2 chelation of prochiral malonaldehydes allows diastereoselective monoaddition reactions with allyl stannane nucleophiles (see scheme; PG=protecting group, TBDMS=tert-butyldiphenylmethylsilyl, Tr=trityl). In the same pot, addition of a second nucleophile proceeds in high diastereoselectivity to generate nonsymmetric products with up to five contiguous stereogenic centers, including a chiral all-carbon quaternary center.
