Abstract
The unprecedented, stereospecific interconversion of cis- and trans-γ,δ-epoxy α,β-unsaturated ester systems has been realized, which involves the palladium-catalyzed stereospecific alkoxy or hydroxy substitution reaction with double inversion of configuration at the γ-position as the key step. The new methodology is not only applicable to various disubstituted and trisubstituted epoxy unsaturated esters, but also these interconversions proceed with an extremely high degree of stereoselectivity and efficiency.
