Graphical Abstract
Asymmetrische 1,4-, 1,5- und 1,6-Induktion: Diastereoselektive Ringschlussmetathese-Reaktionen, bei denen eine temporäre Siloxaneinheit genutzt wird, sind eine neue Strategie für weit reichende asymmetrische Induktion. Mit dieser Methode lassen sich cis-konfigurierte siebengliedrige Ringe des im Schema gezeigten Typs herstellen (n=0, d.r.=20:1); bei Verwendung längerer Alkenylgruppen (n=1–4) kehrt sich die Diastereoselektivität zugunsten des trans-Isomers um.

- 12The major stereoisomer was confirmed from nOe experiments in each case (8 a–i). Details are available in the Supporting Information.
- 13The silyl tether can be readily removed in each case to afford the corresponding diol. For example, treatment of 8 f with 5 % aqueous HF at room temperature furnished the bisallylic 1,4-diol 16 in 99 % yield.
- 14Although Grubbs' catalyst 10 was not optimal for the larger rings, it also furnished 15 as the major diastereoisomer, which confirmed that the catalyst was not responsible for the reversal in selectivity.
- 15The diastereoselectivities in Figure 3, refer to crude product ratios, whereas the selectivities in Table 3 are for the purified silaketals 14 a–d and 15 a–d.
