BF<sub>2</sub>OBn·OEt<sub>2</sub>: A Lewis Acid, Its Use in a Regio‐ and Stereoselective Opening of Trisubstituted Epoxides, and Its Application towards Amphidinolide C and F
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The generation of a new Lewis acid (BF 2 OBn · OEt 2 ) has been reported, and its usefulness has been demonstrated in the regio‐ and stereoselective ring‐opening of trisubstituted epoxides. This Lewis acid is one in a series of new Lewis acids generated from BF 3 · OEt 2 that display varying levels of Lewis acidity. When paired with a modified Shi epoxidation protocol, highly functionalized propionate units, such as those found in a wide variety of natural products, can be accessed. In conjunction with a Mukaiyama oxidative cyclization employing our second generation catalyst Co(nmp) 2 , this procedure ultimately culminated in the shortest and highest yielding route towards the methyl‐substituted trans ‐tetrahydrofuran ( trans ‐THF) fragment present in amphidinolide C, C2, and F.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
