| Research Abstract |
In our ongoing research project on organic syntheses using early transtition metals, zirconium, vanadium, niobium etc., we have exploited enormous possibilities of low valent zirconium complex, zirconocene-butene complex, for organic synthesis. During the past term of project we established an efficient method for the preparation of optically pure carbocycles by treating vinyl sugar derivatives with zirconocene-butene complex and an application to the synthesis of bioactive molecules. We also established the construction of steroidal side chain based on the reaction of zirconocene with vinylcyclopropane, and we have also studied a short-step construction of steroidal skeleton based on the reaction of zirconocene and alkoxymethylated stirene derivatives.
