A new type of asymmetric induction based on the nucleophilic addition of sulfur-substituted nonconjugated carbanions produced from a variety of chiral α-(1,3-dithian-2-yl) acetals to achiral aldehydes was studied.The reaction with the carbanion of the chiral acetal derived from (4R,5R)-3,6-diethyl-3,6-dimethoxy-4,5-octanediol showed the best stereoselectivity (ds = 2.4:1-6.3:1) producing a chiral secondary-alcohol center.
