For instance, some aldoses can be converted to 1,3-dienes via the Wittig reaction at the anomeric carbon, accompanied by the E2 elimination of the C3-alkoxy group. However, there are few examples of terminal 1,3-diene synthesis. We report the synthesis of (S,Z)-1,4-bis(benzyloxy)hexa-3,5-dien-2-ol, featuring a terminal 1,3-diene and chiral secondary alcohol, derived from 2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-d-arabinofuranose with methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide and potassium tert-butoxide in a single step. The synthesized terminal 1,3-diene demonstrated effective reactivity in a cross-metathesis reaction with cis-1,4-diacetoxy-2-butene.","PeriodicalId":509184,"journal":{"name":"Molbank","volume":"48 17","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141659968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
