The total synthesis of natural (4R,5R)-antillatoxin and its analog (4S,5S)-antillatoxin has been achieved; the optically pure key intermediates were prepared from indium mediated allylation of either primary or secondary allylic bromide with aldehyde in aquoues media, followed by highly selective

A stereoselective synthesis of 1,2-hydroxyalkyl moieties is described herein. These valuable building blocks are obtained with complete regiocontrol and excellent stereocontrol both for the syn or the anti products, by choosing the appropriate enantiomer of the ligand in a copper-catalyzed

Solutions of allyl indium reagents formed in the reactions of indium with allyl bromide and allyl iodide, respectively, in N,N-dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, and water were analyzed by a combination of electrospray-ionization mass spectrometry, temperature-dependent (1)H NMR spectroscopy, and electrical conductivity measurements.
