The diastereoselectivity of the aldol reaction of tetrahydro-4H-thiopyran-4-one has been studied[1].
Application
Tetrahydro-4H-thiopyran-4-one was used in the preparation of meso 1,9-diketones[2].
The product has been utilized in various condensation reactions for the preparation of dipeptides,[3] spiroimidazolones,[4] and tetrahydrocarbazoles[5] and α-hydroxy esters.[6]
Meso 1,9-diketones (six to seven stereocenters) are readily obtained by stepwise or simultaneous two-directional aldol reactions of tetrahydro-4H-thiopyran-4-one with a thiopyran-derived aldehyde or dialdehyde. Enantioselective enolizations of these diketones with the lithium amide from (R,R)-bis(1-phenylethyl)amine occur with simultaneous kinetic resolution

The diastereoselectivity of the aldol reaction of tetrahydro-4H-thiopyran-4-one (3) with 1,4-dioxa-8-thiaspiro[4.5]decane-6-carboxaldehyde (9a) under a variety of conditions is examined. Under optimized conditions, three of the four possible diastereomers from this aldol reaction can be obtained selectively (3-16:1). Reactions of 9a
