Abstract

The diastereoselective carbonyl-ene reaction of various 1,1-disubstituted olefins with the chiral derivatives of glyoxylic acid, with Oppolzer’s sultam 1a and 8-phenylmenthol 1b auxiliaries, was studied. The reaction proceeds effectively under undemanding conditions in the presence of equimolar or catalytic amount of ZnBr2 in good yield and at 72–94% de. Diastereoselectivities are usually slightly better with 8-phenylmenthyl glyoxylate 1b, however, the use of hemiacetal 1a is preferred because the products are often crystalline.
