A multigram scale synthesis of the four stereoisomers of methyl 3-silylglycidates (epoxysilanes) with high enantiopurity is described. Key reactions include a Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation (SAE) of a trans-vinylsilane and an enzymatic resolution of a racemic cis-epoxysilane to establish the desired configurations. Few chromatographic separations (5 columns out of 13 steps) are required for purification, establishing a convenient reaction sequence for both the trans- and cis-isomers.
描述了一种多克规模的、具有高对映体纯度的3-硅烷基缩水甘油酸甲酯(环氧硅烷)四种立体异构体的合成方法。关键反应包括反式乙烯基硅烷的夏普莱斯不对称环氧化反应(SAE)和外消旋顺式环氧硅烷的酶促拆分反应,以建立所需的构型。纯化过程只需很少的色谱分离步骤(13步中有5步),为反式和顺式异构体都建立了方便的反应序列。
