Asymmetric synthesis of 3-butylphthalide using isomannide and isosorbide as chiral auxiliaries

Center of Drug Discovery, China Pharmaceutical University, Nanjing 210009, China

Received Date: 23 July 2007

A new approach for asymmetric syntheses of (S) and (R)-3-n-butylphthalide (NBP) is presented. The diastereoselective addition of dibutylzinic to aromatic aldehyde 10 or 11 generated from isomannide-or isosorbide-derived chiral auxiliary afforded S-NBP or R-NBP in high optical yields.
