Summary:Addition of [(dimethylphenylsilyl)methyl]magnesium chloride to 6-benzylimino-6-deoxy-1,2;3,4-di- O-isopropylidene-α- D-galactopyranose mediated by Ce(III)Cl 3 or CuI/BF 3·Et 2O proceeds with complete syn- or anti-diastereoselectivity, respectively, to afford highly chiral precursors of destomic acid or lincosamine. Addition of [(dimethylphenylsilyl)methyl]magnesium chloride to 6-benzylimino-6-deoxy-1,2;3,4-di- O-isopropylidene-α- D-galactopyranose mediated by Ce(III)Cl 3, or CuI/BF 3·Et 2O proceeds with excellent diastereoselectivity to give the syn or anti-adduct 1 and 2, respectively.
