Cycloadditions of hydroxylated enantiopure pyrroline N-oxides to 1,2-glycal
s display high double-asymmetric induction. The selectivity is controlled b
y the stereochemistry at C-3 of the glycal. A parallel kinetic resolution e
xperiment with a racemic cis-dihydroxypyrroline N-oxide allowed the synthes
is of two different pseudo imino-C-disaccharides precursors in a completely
enantiopure form, totally avoiding the formation of minor cycloadducts.
