Title compounds 1-2 were readily resolved into their enantiomers by crystallizing their half esters formed with O,O'-diacetyl-(2R,3R)-tartaric acid. An intermolecular H-bond between the free carboxyl group and the ring oxygen, determined by single crystal X-ray study of (S)-(+)-tetrahydrofurfuryl-O,O'-diacetyl-(2R,3R)-hydrogentartrate, enhances the selectivity and the crystallizing ability itself.

The stereoselective introduction of the glycosidic bond is one of the main challenges in chemical oligosaccharide synthesis. Stereoselective glycosylation can be achieved using neighbouring group participation of a C-2 auxiliary or using additives, for example. Both methods aim to generate a defined reactive intermediate that reacts in a stereoselective manner with alcohol nucleophiles. This inspired us to develop new C-2 auxiliaries based on commonly used additive functionalities such as ethers, phosphine oxides and tertiary amides. Good 1,2-trans-selectivity was observed for the phosphine oxide and amide-based auxiliaries expanding the toolbox with new auxiliaries for stereoselective glycosylation reactions.

A rare-earth metal/alkali metal bimetallic catalyst proved particularly effective for enantioselectively coupling nitroalkanes and α-keto esters in an anti-selective manner to afford synthetically versatile, densely functionalized, and optically active α-nitro tertiary alcohols. A chiral diamide ligand captured two distinct metal cations, giving rise to a catalytically competent solid-phase heterobimetallic catalyst by simple mixing via self-assembly. The advantage of the solid-phase asymmetric catalyst was realized by successful application to the enantio- and diastereoselective reaction in a continuous-flow platform. The use of closely related solvents in terms of structures and polarity parameters, THF and its methylated congener 2-Me-THF, had an unexpectedly large solvent effect both on the reaction rate and the stereoselectivity. The nitroaldol products share a privileged unit for active pharmaceutical ingredients, as demonstrated by the streamlined enantioselective synthesis of the marketed antifungal agents efinaconazole and albaconazole.
