1,2-diacetals: a new opportunity for organic synthesis.

The use of 1,2-diacetals for a number of synthetic applications to provide diol protection and reactivity control was studied. The chiral versions of these systems were used to desymmetrize the enantiotopic diol pairs and to discriminate diequatorial diols in many carbohydrate derivatives. The fusio...
