The tandem asymmetric reaction can afford four new stereogenic centers with one reaction and give optically pure spiro-cyclopropane derivatives 5a--5d which are difficult to obtain by routine methods. The synthetic method for 5a--5d was studied in detail and the new compounds were identified on the basis of their analytical data and spectroscopic data, such as [α]^(20),IR,~1H NMR,^(13)C NMR, MS and elementary analysis. The absolute configuration of the sprio [5-l-menthyloxy-3-bromo butyrolactocyclopropane-3″, 3′(4′-methyloxy-5′-menthyloxybutyrolactone)] (5a) was established by X-ray crystallography. The work can provide important synthetic strategy in synthesis of some new optically active spiro-cyclopropane analogues and some biologically active molecules with complex structure.展开更多
