First Asymmetric Hetero Diels−Alder Reaction of 1-Sulfinyl Dienes with Nitroso Derivatives. A New Entry to the Synthesis of Optically Pure 1,4-Imino-l-ribitol Derivatives

Abstract
Hetero Diels−Alder (HDA) cycloaddition of chiral 1-p-tolylsulfinyl-1,3-pentadiene with benzyl nitrosoformate, under mild conditions, yields 2H-1,2-oxazine 3 with complete regioselectivity and π-facial diastereoselectivity. Sequential osmylation and protection of the resulting glycol gives the oxazine 5 which is directly transformed into enantiomerically pure 1,4,5-trideoxy-1,4-imino-l-ribitol 8 by reduction under Pd/C.
