The regiochemical outcome of the ring opening of 1,2-epoxides bearing polar remote functionalities through chelation processes assisted by metal ions was verified in a conformationally semirigid cyclic oxirane system in which the polar functionality is both directly inserted into the cyclic system and present on the cyclic system itself. Diastereoisomeric cis 4 and trans epoxide 5, derived from 2-(benzyloxy)-3,6-dihydro-2H-pyran, were prepared and some of their opening reactions (azidolysis, aminolysis, Cl- addition, and LiAlH4 reduction) were studied. The regioselectivity observed is largely dependent for both 4 and 5 on the opening (standard or metal-assisted) reaction conditions, and a regioalternating process is almost obtained.

Abstract
The regiochemical outcome of the ring opening of 1,2-epoxides bearing polar remote functionalities through chelation processes assisted by metal ions was verified in a conformationally semirigid cyclic oxirane system in which the polar functionality is both directly inserted into the cyclic system and present on the cyclic system itself. Diastereoisomeric cis 4 and trans epoxide 5, derived from 2-(benzyloxy)-3,6-dihydro-2H-pyran, were prepared and some of their opening reactions (azidolysis, aminolysis, Cl- addition, and LiAlH4 reduction) were studied. The regioselectivity observed is largely dependent for both 4 and 5 on the opening (standard or metal-assisted) reaction conditions, and a regioalternating process is almost obtained.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
