Resumo
Transformation of enantiopure diastereoisomers (2R,1‘S)- and (2S,1‘S)-2-(1-aminoalkyl)epoxides into the corresponding 4-(1-aminoalkyl)-1,3-dioxolanes is achieved by reaction with different ketones in the presence of BF3·Et2O. The conversion takes place in very high yields, total selectivity, and without epimerization. A mechanism to explain this transformation is proposed. The obtained 1,3-dioxolanes can be deprotected, and (2R,3S)- and (2S,3S)-3-aminoalkano-1,2-diols were isolated.

- Representative Experimental Procedure.To a stirred solution of the corresponding amino epoxide1or3(0.2 mmol) in CH2Cl2(1 mL, or propanone when this ketone was used), BF3·OEt2(0.025 mL, 0.2 mmol) and the corresponding ketone (0.22 mmol) were added at 0 °C. After 1 h of stirring, an aqueous saturated solution of sodium bicarbonate (5 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 min. Then, the aqueous phase was extracted with CH2Cl2(3 × 5 mL), and the combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Flash column chromatography on silica gel (hexane/EtOAc 20:1) provided pure compounds2and4.
