Abstract

Benzyloxyallyltributyltins were obtained in 50–80% yield by SN2′ reaction of alkyl- cyanocuprates with 3, 3-dibenzyloxy-1-tributylstannylprop-1-ene in the presence of boron trifluoride. They reacted with cyclohexylidene glyceraldehyde in the presence of different Lewis acids and the obtained diastereomeric adducts were unambiguously identified after an ozonolysis/deprotection sequence by comparison with authentic aldopentoses. The ...
