Abstract

A convenient way to obtain enantiomerically pure hydroxylated pyrroline N-oxides is reported. The key step is the formation of ω-oxo enoates from d-ribose and a subsequent 1,3-azaprotio cyclotransfer reaction of the resulting oximino alkenoate derivatives. The stereochemistry of the nitrones obtained is discussed in relation to that of the starting compounds.
