[GRAPHICS] A highly diastereoselective anti aldol addition utilizing a variety of N-glycolyloxazolidinethiones has been developed. Enolization of an N-glycolyloxazolidinethione with titanium (IV) chloride and (-)-sparteine followed by addition of an aldehyde activated with additional TiCl4 resulted in highly anti-selective aldol additions, typically with no observable syn isomers. Allyl-protected glycolates demonstrated the highest levels of selection and yields, although O-benzyl and O-methyl glycolyloxazolidinethiones also performed well.
