Abstract
The following asymmetric reductions with the lithium aluminium hydride–3-O-benzyl-1,2-O-cyclohexylidene-α-D-glucofuranose complex were carried out. Hex-2-en-4-yn-1-ol gave (–)-hexa-3,4-dienol, [α]D20–10°; hept-2-en-4-yn-1-ol gave (–)-hepta-3,4-dienol, [α]D 20–8.9°; non-2-en-4-yn-1-ol gave nona-3,4-dienol, [α]D 20–7.4°; 5-phenylpent-2-en-4-yn-1-ol gave 5-phenylpenta-2,3-dienol, [α]D 20–16.4°; 8,8-dimethylnon-2-en-4,6-diyn-1-ol gave (–)-8,8-dimethylnona-3,4-dien-6-yn-1-ol, [α]D 25–12.5°; 7-phenylhept-2-en-4,6-diyn-1-ol gave 7-phenylhepta-3,4-dien-6-yn-1-ol, [α]D 25–3.1°; non-2-ene-4,6,8-triynyl-1-ol gave (–)-marasin, [α]D 25–26.6°; and dec-2-ene-4,6,8-triyn-1-ol gave 9-methylmarasin, [α]D 25–11.3°. The absolute configuration of all the β-allenic alcohols thus obtained is deduced as R.Keywords
