We have developed a new method for the stereoselective establishment of the N-acyl hemiaminal moiety in zampanolide-type structures that involves the reaction of (Z,E)-sorbamide (3) with BINAL-H and subsequent amide transfer from a putative aluminum carbo

Cobalt demonstrates a remarkable ability to catalytically divert the course of epoxide to oxetane ring expansion via reaction with a sulfoxonium ylide. An expanded survey of transition-metal catalysts has confirmed that cobalt salts uniquely instead deliv

Cobalt salts exert an unexpected and profound influence on the reactivity of epoxides with dimethylsulfoxonium methylide. In the presence of a cobalt catalyst, conditions for epoxide to an oxetane ring expansion instead deliver homoallylic alcohol products, corresponding to a two-carbon epoxide homologation/ring-opening tandem process. The observed reactivity change appears to be specifically due to cobalt salts and is broadly applicable to a variety of epoxides, retaining the initial stereochemistry. This transformation also provides operationally simple access to enantiopure homoallylic alcohols from chiral epoxides without use of organometallic reagents. Tandem epoxidation-homologation of aldehydes in a single step is also demonstrated.
