Since the initial report of Oguni and Omi on the reaction of diethylzinc with benzaldehyde in
the presence of a catalytic amount of (S)-leucinol with moderate enantioselectivity (49% ee) …

Stereoselective synthesis of monoterpene-based 1, 2, 4-and 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole derivatives
was accomplished starting from α, β-unsaturated carboxylic acids, obtained by the oxidation …

Novel chiral aminoalcohols were synthesized by highly diastereoselective addition of
Me3SiCN and LiCH2CN to (−)-menthone followed by LiAlH4 reduction. The addition of …

The realization of enantioselective CC-bond forming reactions is of immense importance in
the modern organic synthesis. The global needs of pharmaceutical industry and the fast …

Benzylation of isopulegol furnished O-benzyl-protected isopulegol, which was transformed
into aminodiols via epoxidation followed by ring opening of the corresponding epoxides and …

Epoxy alcohols are extremely versatile building blocks in organic synthesis, due to their
general availability in both enantiomeric series. The preferred methods for the subsequent …

A library of pinane-based aminodiols were prepared from commercially available (1R)-(−)-
myrtenol (−)-1. Compound (−)-1 was transformed into allyl trichloroacetamide (+)-2 via the …
