摘要:
A process for producing an epoxide represented by general formula (1a) or (1b), which comprises reacting an olefin represented by general formula (2) with a compound containing iodine and an acyloxy ion and treating the reaction product under a basic condition so as to form an oxirane ring on the stereochemically crowded side of the feed olefin. In formulae (1a), (1b) and (2), R¹, R², R³ and R⁴ represent each hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, alkoxy, aryloxy, acyl, alkoxycarbonyl, aryloxycarbonyl, aralkyl, silyl or silyloxy, provided that when each of these groups represents a divalent group, they may be combined together to represent a cyclic group, and that these groups may be the same or different from one another and further may be substituted or branched. The plane formed by the double bond, R¹, R², R³ and R⁴ has one side which is stereochemically more crowded than the other side.
摘要:
A process for producing cis-whiskey-lactone represented by formula (A), which is one of the flavoring components of whiskey or wine, selectively and readily, which comprises hydrolyzing the lactone part of trans-whiskey-lactone with potassium hydroxide, adding an alkyl group to the product by the reaction with isopropyl bromide to form isopropyl (3S, 4S)-4-hydroxy-3-methyloctanoate, reacting the formed ester with diethyl azodicarboxylate in the presence of both triphenylphosphine and an azodicarboxylate in the presence of both triphenylphosphine and an azodicarboxylic ester to form isopropyl (3S, 4S)-4-(3', 5'-dinitrobenzoyloxy)-3-methyloctanoate, and hydrolying the formed ester with a 2 % aqueous sodium hydroxide solution.
