Synthesis of 3(R)-(t-butyldiphenylsilyloxy)-1-penten-4-yne, via an improved procedure for aldehyde-to-alkyne homologation

Abstract

3(R)-(t-Butyldiphenylsilyloxy)-1-penten-4-yne was prepared using D-xylose as the chiral template via an improved procedure for aldehyde-to-alkyne homologation in high yield.link_to_subscribed_fulltex
