The 1 alpha-hydroxy A-ring phosphine oxide 1, a useful building block for vitamin D analogues, was synthesized from (S)-carvone in nine synthetic operations and a single chromatographic purification in 25% overall yield. The synthesis features two novel efficient synthetic transformations: the Criegee rearrangement of alpha-methoxy hydroperoxyacetate 10 in methanol to obtain directly the desired secondary 3 beta-alcohol 11 and the highly chemo- and stereoselective isomerization of dieneoxide ester (E)-7 to the 1 alpha-allylic alcohol with an exocyclic double bond (E)-8. Further insight into the selectivity control of the latter rearrangement was obtained from the reactions of (Z)-epimeric substrates. The new synthetic approach leading to the 1 alpha-hydroxy epimers complements our previously reported synthesis of the corresponding 1 beta-epimers, thus producing all stereoisomers of these versatile building blocks efficiently from carvone.
