Abstract
The use of sulfahydantoins in the Mitsunobu reaction with hydroxyacids lead to O-substituted compounds rather than the expected N-alkylated structures. Crystallographic analysis by X-ray diffraction confirmed t he structure of unusual compounds and a mechanism for their formation is proposed. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
