Doubly diastereoselective conjugate additions of the antipodes of lithium N-benzyl-N-(α-methylbenzyl)amide to enantiopure ε-O-protected α,β-unsaturated esters derived from d-ribose

Enantiopure ε-O-silyloxy- and ε-O-benzyloxy-α,β- unsaturated esters derived from d-ribose, each containing a cis-dioxolane unit, display excellent (≥95:5 dr) levels of diastereofacial directing ability upon conjugate addition of achiral lithium N-benzyl-N-isopropylamide. In contrast to the correspon...
