Asymmetric Synthesis of alpha- and beta-Benzylhydroxy-gamma-butyrolactones

Sammanfattning

Herein we describe a new asymmetric synthesis of alpha-benzyl-alpha-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone, a core building block of new HIV-1 protease inhibitors containing a tertiary alcohol in the transition-state mimic. Immediate access to beta-benzyl-beta-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone is also possible from a common intermediate. Both lactones are useful building blocks in their own right.
