Studies of stereocontrol in two types of radical equivalents of Mannich addition reactions offer new insights for application to aminosugar synthesis. In the first method, haloacetal addition (Ueno-Stork reaction) is extended to dihydroxyhydrazones, leading to an adduct with the unexpected 3-epi-l-daunosamine configuration. A neighboring α-benzyloxy substituent causes a dramatic reversal of stereocontrol compared with hydrazones where this substituent is absent; vicinal dipole repulsion is proposed to account for the diastereoselectivity. In the second method, radical addition-cyclization with thiophenol and treatment with fluoride leads to diastereoselective group transfer from a silicon-tethered ethynyl group to the C{double bond, long}N bond of hydrazones, affording anti-hydrazino alcohols with a trans-2-(phenylthio)vinyl substituent. The one-pot process occurs under neutral, tin-free radical conditions, and offers stereocontrol which is complementary to the haloacetal method. Synthetic utility of the radical Mannich concept is demonstrated in a brief asymmetric synthesis of N-trifluoroacetyl-l-daunosamine from achiral precursors.
