✦ Synopsis

Aldol Condensation Reactions of (Dienone)tricarbonyliron Complexes. Part 4. Enantioselective Total Synthesis of 3-Deoxypentoses from (-)-Myrtenal.

-BF3•OEt2 instead of TiCl4 (produces only one diastereomer) allows the synthesis of two diastereomers (III) and (IV) which are elaborated to the desired title sugars (VIII) and (IX). -(FRANCK-
