The synthesis and stereochemistry of new dibrominated spiro-1,3-dioxane der
ivatives are reported. Investigations by means of NMR methods and single cr
ystal X-ray diffraction for two compounds revealed the high regio- and dias
tereoselectivity of the bromination reaction of some new spiro-1,3-dioxanes
and the asymmetric induction of the chiral carbon atom located in the spir
o skeleton.
