The Ru-catalyzed enantio- and diastereoselective dynamic kinetic resolution of α-(benzyloxy/benzoyloxy)acyl-γ-butyrolactones has been examined via transfer hydrogenation. Employing the in situ prepared (R,R)-Ru-FsDPEN catalyst, the transfer hydrogenation of using formic acid/triethylamine at rt gave the corresponding (S)-3-((S)-2-(benzyloxy/benzoyloxy)-1-hydroxyethyl)dihydrofuran-2(3H)-one with good to excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivity. One of the resulting hydrogenation product prepared on gram scales was utilized for the synthesis of (3R,3aS,6aR)-hexahydrofuro[2,3–b]furan-3-ol (1), a key synthetic intermediate of various HIV protease inhibitors such as darunavir with excellent enantio- (95% ee) and diastereoselectivities (dr 95:5). |
