ABSTRACT
The stereochemical course of the epoxidation of the silyl enol ethers of 2-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxycycloheptanone and -cyclooctanone has been investigated and shown to proceed exclusively anti to the existing alpha-substituent. 2-(Benzyloxy)cyclooctanone behaves similarly, and the presence of a transannular double bond does not alter the outcome. Alpha-ketol rearrangements are seen to operate during ensuing fluoride ion-induced removal of the silyl protecting groups in select examples. The preferred means for generating the cis isomers of the alpha,alpha'-dihydroxy cycloalkanones involves methylenation of the monoprotected trans-dihydroxy ketones with the Nysted reagent, followed by oxidation and subsequent reduction with sodium borohydride. Ozonolysis and fluoride ion-induced desilylation complete the route.
