Optically pure 2-tributylstannyl-N-Boc-1,3-oxazolidine 6, prepared from the camphor-derived aminoalcohol 5, was converted to diastereomerically pure 2-acyl derivatives 8 in three steps. Reaction of these ketones with Grignard reaagents at -78°C proceeded with high stereoselectivity affording tertiary carbinols which gave 1,2-diols with >96% ee after hydrolysis and reduction of the intermediate α-hydroxy aldehydes. A new deblocking procedure of the t-Boc group is also described.
