Abstract

Abstract Image

Syntheses of conduritols B−D and F and d-(+)-chiro- and neo-inositols from cyclohexenylsilane intermediates are described. The key cyclohexylsilane intermediates 5 and 14 were synthesized by stereoselective olefin dihydroxylation of the corresponding cyclohexenylsilanes. Selective Peterson elimination reactions and Fleming−Tamao oxidations of 5 and 14 then delivered the targeted cyclitol derivatives.
