A new heterocyclic compound, C(2)-symmetric bis-sulfoxide 1, has been found to be an efficient chiral auxiliary for asymmetric desymmetrization of cyclic meso-1,2-diols via diastereoselective acetal fission. Both (R,R)- and (S,S)-1 are readily synthesized with high optical purity via asymmetric oxidation of 1, 5-benzodithiepan-3-one (2). After acetalization of meso-1,2-diols 6a-e and a mono-TMS ether 6f with this chiral auxiliary 1, the resulting acetals 7a-f were subjected to base-promoted acetal fission upon treatment with potassium hexamethyldisilazide (KHMDS) followed by acetylation or benzylation to give the desymmetrized diol derivatives 8a-f with high diastereoselectivity. The chiral auxiliary 1 is readily removed by acid-promoted hydrolysis and can be recovered without a loss in enantiomeric excess.

[figure: see text] The first total synthesis of mosin B and a diastereomer was accomplished using asymmetric desymmetrization of the sigma-symmetric diol and the Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction as the key steps. The THF core segment was stereoselectively constructed employing a stereodivergent synthesis starting from a common intermediate, 4-cyclohexene-1,2-diol, based on a desymmetrization strategy. By virtue of these synthetic results, it is suggested that the absolute configuration is 1a.

The physical and mental state of women with unexplained RPL should be evaluated using HRV to offer mental support. Furthermore, study of HRV may elucidate the risk of cardiovascular diseases and the mechanisms underlying unexplained RPL.

A total synthesis of the threo/trans/erythro-type acetogenin mosin B and one of its diastereomers has been achieved. The carbon skeleton is assembled in a convergent fashion from two segments (a THF ring segment and a gamma-lactone segment) through the Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction. The THF ring segment was stereoselectively constructed by a stereodivergent synthesis starting from a common intermediate (4-cyclohexene-1,2-diol) based on a desymmetrization strategy. The gamma-lactone segment was synthesized by coupling a triflate and a chiral alpha-sulfenyl gamma-lactone. By virtue of these synthetic results, we suggest that the absolute configuration of natural mosin B is 1 a. Antiproliferative effects of 1 a and 1 b were also investigated.
