Abstract

See full text

An enantioselective process for the preparation of homoallyl alcohol enantiomer of formula II ##STR1## wherein: X.sup.1, X.sup.2 and X.sup.3 independently chosen from the group consisting of hydrogen, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, iodine, C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.1 and C.sub.6 haloalkyl, and haloaryl; and R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are independently chosen from the group consisting of hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, benzyl, substituted benzyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl; or R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 is as hereinbefore defined and R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 form a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring; which process comprises; reacting an aldehyde of formula III with an alkene or formula IV in the presence of an optically-active organometallic catalyst. ##STR2## Furthermore, the compound of formula II can be isomerized to the allylic alcohol of formula I with retention of optical purity. ##STR3##
