Process for the synthesis of 1,3-diols

An improved process for the preparation of cis-1,3-diols is described where a beta hydroxy ketone is treated with a trialkylborane or dialkylalkoxyborane or a mixture of a trialkylborane and a dialkylalkoxyborane followed by recovery and reuse of the alkylborane species to convert additional beta hy...

Summary:An improved process for the preparation of cis-1,3-diols is described where a beta hydroxy ketone is treated with a trialkylborane or dialkylalkoxyborane or a mixture of a trialkylborane and a dialkylalkoxyborane followed by recovery and reuse of the alkylborane species to convert additional beta hydroxy ketone to the cis-1,3-diol.
