[0002] The hemiacetal structure is a key pharmacophore in many natural products (such as certain iridoids and sugars) and bioactive molecules, and its formation often involves dynamic stereochemical control. However, the organic combination of a chiral center with a specific-sized eight-membered ring skeleton and hemiacetal functional groups, especially achieving its controllable first synthesis, remains a significant challenge. No chiral eight-membered ring hemiacetal compounds with the same or similar structures as those of this invention have been reported in the prior art. Therefore, developing a class of novel chiral eight-membered ring hemiacetal compounds with synthetic accessibility and stereoselectivity is of great significance for expanding the library of medium-ring compounds and discovering new chiral catalysts or lead drug molecules.
