✦ Synopsis


The addition of Grignard reagents to D-erythro-4-pentenose N-benzyl nitrone 5, which is easily accessible from D-ribose, furnishes ω-unsaturated hydroxylamines that readily undergo Cope-House cyclization to afford pyrrolidine N-oxides. The stereoselectivity of the addition step is altered by either employing organolithium compounds or Lewis acids
