FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to compounds of formula I 2

[0002] wherein R.sup.1-R.sup.4 are as herein defined, and to a process (Mukaiyama Aldol reaction) for the preparation of such compounds. Compounds of formula I are useful intermediates in the synthesis of other products, including, e.g. Dolastatin 10.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Mukaiyama Aldol reactions are known. Dialkyl acetals are known to be substituted by Mukaiyama aldol reactions with silyl enol ethers or silyl ketene acetals affording .beta.-alkoxy ketones or esters (K. Saigo, M. Osaki, T. Mukaiyama, Chem. Lett. 1976, 769-770; T. Mukaiyama, M. Murakami, Synthesis 1987, 1043-1054; S. Kano, T. Yokomatsu, H. Iwasawa, S. Shibuya, Chem. Lett. 1987, 1531-1534; M. A. Graham, A. H. Wadsworth, M. Thornten-Pett, B.Carrozzini, G. L. Cascarano, C. M. Rayner, Tetrahedron Lett. 2001, 42, 2865-2868; M. A. Graham, A. H. Wadsworth, M. Thornten-Pett, B.Carrozzini, G. L. Cascarano, C. M. Rayner, Org. Biomol. Chem. 2003, 1, 834-849).

[0004] Surprisingly, it has now been found that N-benzyl-protected dialkyl acetal derivatives undergo desired aldol reaction with high diastereoselectivity using a Mukaiyama aldol reaction.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0005] In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a process of the preparation of compounds of formula I 3

[0006] comprising reacting a compound of formula II 4

[0007] with a compound of formula III 5

[0008] in the presence of a Lewis acid and an organic solvent;

[0009] wherein

[0010] R.sup.1 is C.sub.1-4 alkyl, C.sub.3-6 cycloalkyl-C.sub.1-4 alkyl or aryl-C.sub.1-4 alkyl;

[0011] R.sup.2 is C.sub.1-4 alkyl, benzyl, substituted benzyl or allyl;

[0012] R.sup.3 is C.sub.1-4 alkyl or allyl;

[0013] R.sup.4 is C.sub.1-4 alkyl, allyl, benzyl or substituted benzyl;

[0014] R.sup.4' is benzyl or substituted benzyl; or alternatively

[0015] R.sup.1 and R.sup.4 together with the nitrogen to which they are bound form a pyrrolidine group; and

[0016] R.sup.5 is a trialkylsilyl group.

[0017] In another embodiment, the invention relates to compounds of formula I as defined above.

[0018] In other embodiments, the invention relates to compounds of formula II as described above, and compounds of formula IV and VI as defined below.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0019] As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings:

[0020] "C.sub.1-4 alkyl" denotes straight or branched chain hydrocarbon residues containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, isobutyl or tert-butyl.
