The journey of l-tartaric acid through its derivative (−)-dimethyl-2,3-O-isopropylidene-l-tartrate in the synthesis of enantiomerically pure diols, cyclo-[n]-malonates and finally, inherently chiral trans-3 bisadducts and all-trans-3 trisadducts of C60 is presented.

The enantiomerically pure title compound ((4R,5S)-(5-methyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-ylmethyl)-phosphonium iodide) has been synthesized starting from (R,R)-(+)-tartaric acid. The synthesis of an olguine analog has been carried out. Attempts have been made to improve the stereoselectivity and yield of key steps.

( + )-Discodermolide 3, a potent anticancer agent that works synergistically with taxol, may yet prove to be clinically effective. For the synthetic material to be affordable, a highly convergent synthesis is required. Jean-François Betzer and Janick Ardisson of the Université de Cergy- Pontoise have described (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2007, 46, 1917) such a synthesis, coupling 1 and 2. A central feature of their approach was the repeated application of the inherently chiral secondary organometallic reagent 5. The first use of 5 was the addition to the aldehyde 4. The product 6 was ozonized, and the resulting aldehyde was carried on to the α, β-unsaturated ester. Exposure of the hydroxy ester to benzaldehyde under basic conditions delivered, by intramolecular Michael addition, the acetal 7. The next addition of the reagent 5 was to the aldehyde 10. The adduct 11 was deprotonated with t-BuLi to effect α-elimination, providing, after protection of the alcohol, the alkyne 12. Coupling of 12 with the amide 7 gave a ketone, enantioselective reduction of which under Itsuno-Corey conditions led, again after protection of the alcohol, to the alkyne 13. Oxidation followed by selective hydrogenation and iodine-tin exchange then completed the assembly of 1. Note that PtO2, not typically used for partial hydrogenation, was the catalyst of choice for this congested alkyne. The third application of the enantiomerically-pure reagent 5 was addition to the aldehyde that had been prepared by ozonolysis of 15. Advantage was then taken of another property of the alkenyl carbamate, Ni-mediated Grignard coupling, to form the next carbon-carbon bond with high geometric control. Deprotection of the diene 17 so prepared followed by iodination then completed the synthesis of 2. The convergent coupling of 1 with 2 was carried out under Suzuki conditions. Reduction of the iodide of 2 to the corresponding alkyl lithium followed by exchange with B-OMe-9-BBN gave an intermediate organoborane, that smoothly coupled with 1 under Pd catalysis to give 18.
