The most promising result was under the original conditions of Poli, using trimethylamine N-oxide as reoxidant (entries a,b), indicating almost 40% of the desired tetraol 311 by crude 1 H NMR. Unfortunately leaving the reaction for longer did not improve conversion, and the isolated yield was poor with almost equal amounts of each by-product seen. Under other dihydroxylation conditions enone 318 was the major product, which under prolonged reaction oxidised to triol 319 (entries c, d). The relative stereochemistry of 319 was assigned by analogy to the dihydroxylation of the related enone 201 (section 4.2.2). Whilst unexpected, the oxidation of allylic alcohols to enones under stoichiometric osmium tetroxide has been previously observed by Donohoe 195 who proposed it to be 161
4.4 – Revised altrose synthesis indicative of a strong interaction between the allylic alcohol and osmium tetroxide. The substrate-metal interaction might be further strengthened by the presence of an internal amine which would compete with the amine ligands of the catalytic systems (N-methylmorpholine, trimethylamine or quinuclidine). Sharpless has previously shown that osmate esters are unreactive to NMO when coordinatively saturated with amines. 198 Since it is postulated that it is the catalytic cycle that is being inhibited, the problem might be overcome under stoichiometric conditions. The most notable such reaction is the application of the stoichiometric TMEDA/osmium tetroxide by Donohoe. 199 A further advantage of this system is that it has been estimated to be 100 times more reactive than the monodentate catalytic systems previously used, although conducting the reaction at –78 °C to enhance selectivity might be expected to negate this. We would not expect to obtain tetraol 311 as the major product from this reaction as Donohoe conditions generally prefer syn-dihydroxylation. Despite rapid consumption of starting material, no products could be identified either before or after purification (Table 4.6, entry h). The reaction mixture remained rust brown after all recommended hydrolysis conditions were employed, making analysis of the reaction difficult. It is noted that osmate esters are normally detectable by 1 H NMR and TLC, and no compounds could be identified by either method. Meanwhile, enough of tetraol 311 had been isolated to investigate the forward reaction. 4.4.3.a Route B: oxazolidine hydrolysis The isolated tetraol 311 and ketone 319 were subject to the hydrolysis conditions previously developed (Scheme 4.39). The tetraol could be seen to go to a UV-inactive product by TLC at both ambient and elevated temperatures, but upon workup no aldehyde could be seen in the crude NMR. Reaction of ketone 319 was slow, presumably since it lacked an available hydroxyl group to facilitate hydrolysis (section 4.2.9). 162
