Abstract
An asymmetric synthesis of (R)-(+)-6-(1,4-dimethoxy-3-methyl-2-naphthyl)-6-(4-hydroxyphenyl)hexanoic acid 2 as a key intermediate for a neurodegenerative disease agent 1 has been developed. A key reaction was an asymmetric hydrogenation of hindered acrylic acid 13 catalyzed by the Rh-JOSIPHOS system in the presence of a base to afford a chiral acid up to 93% ee.
