The key intermediate in the synthesis of dorzolamide, (4<i>S</i>,6<i>S</i>)-methyl-5,6-dihydro-4<i>H</i>-thieno[2,3-<i>b</i>]thiopyran-4-ol-7,7-dioxide, can be obtained in the diastereoisomerically pure form in two straightforward steps starting from diastereoisomeric mixtures of <i>cis</i>/<i>trans</i>-(6<i>S</i>)-6-methyl-5,6-dihydro-4<i>H</i>-thieno[2,3-<i>b</i>]thiopyran-4-yl acetate, regardless of their ratio. The reaction of crucial importance in this scheme is a remarkably stereoselective ...[more]
