Solvent effects on the stereochemistry in the sodium borohydride reduction of (+/-)-flavanonols have been examined.The effects observed for the (+/-)-flavanonols with 5-OMe in 2-propanol, dioxane and methanol are explainable by the differences between the steric interactions inherent in the product-like transition states A and B.It has been also found that 5-OAc peculiarly affects the stereochemistry in the reduction to produce the (+/-)-catechin-type compounds in a one-pot process.The solvent and temperature effects are examined using a model analogous to the above.
HETEROCYCLES. XIV. EFFICIENT STEREOCONTROLLED SYNTHESIS OF RACEMIC FLAVONOIDS

, p. 1147 - 1153 (2007/10/02)
Stereocontrolled synthesis of the flavonoids (2, 4 and 5) is described.Racemic taxifolin (dihydroquercetin) (14) is synthesized by application of this method.
