Application of butane-2,3-diacetals in the synthesis of optically active natural products

Journal Title: CHEMIK nauka-technika-rynek - Year 2014, Vol 68, Issue 4

Abstract

Butane diacetals (BDAs) are stable, optically active building blocks used in the synthesis of natural products. They can be synthesized from cheap substrates such as: D-mannitol, L-ascorbic acid, dimethyl L-tartrate and dimethyl D-tartrate. The rigid structure of butane diacetals makes possible their application in asymmetric synthesis. The article presents literature review on synthesis of butane diacetals and their application in the synthesis of natural small and large optically active compounds.
