Diastereoselective cyclopropanation of medium and large ring alpha, beta-unsaturated homochiral ketals and enantioselective synthesis of (-)-modhephene.

A general straightforward synthetic approach for the enantioselective construction of medium and large ring cyclopropyl ketones via diastereoselective Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation is discussed. Medium and large 2-cycloalkenone 1,4Di-O-benzyl-L-threitol ketals undergo efficient and diastereoselecti...
