Abstract

The asymmetric synthesis of R-hydroxy acids continues to be an area of active interest due to their utility as chiral building blocks. 1 Among the several synthetic approaches to R- hydroxy acids, the stereoselective addition of carbon nucleophiles to chiral R-keto acid derivatives has been extensively investigated. 2 We describe here a stereoselective synthesis of R-alkyl R-allyl R-hydroxy amides, R-alkyl R-hydroxy acids, and RH R-hydroxy ...
