M. Koman et al., Absolute configuration of the newly formed asymmetric centre in (1R,5R,8S)-8-benzyloxy-2,6-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-one, ACT CRYST E, 57, 2001, pp. o360-o361
The absolute configuration of the asymmetric centre (8S) formed during Pd-I
I-catalyzed oxycarbonylation was established by X-ray analysis of the title
compound (alternatively 3,6-anhydro-2-deoxy-D-lyxo-1,5-hexonolactone), C13
H14O4.
