摘要:

A simple and efficient protocol was developed for the syntheses of optically active epoxides(2a-2d) via the reactions of epichlorohydrin with organometallic reagents with steric hindrance at low temperature. On this basis, episulfides(3a-3d) were obtained with high e.e. values by the reaction of the corresponding epoxides with NH4SCN. The configuration of thiiranes was opposite to that of the corresponding epoxides. Then, epoxides 2a-2d were anionically polymerized and the poly-R-2a(or poly-S-2a) was proved to keep a stable one-handed helical conformation in solution. The oligomers[degree of polymerization(DP)=2-5] were obtained when the thiiranes(3a, 3b and 3c) were used to polymerize.
