Abstract

4-HPPD, Fe II, L-Ascorbate HO Ji 02, Dithio~mitol OH OH 3 4 Scheme 2 In 1990 Hart and Pascal demonstrated that ~-KICD could also convert the unnatural substrate S-4- methyl-2-oxohexanoic acid 5 to R-3-hydroxy-3-methylpentanoic acid 6, corresponding to complete retention of configuration during the hydroxylation reaction (Scheme 3) 5. In order tO establish the stereochemical outcome associated with the natural substrate 1 we have synthesized both enantiomers of the ...
