Uses
It undergoes Aldol condensations with silyl ketene acetals.1 Employed in spiroannulated carbohydrate synthesis.2 Convergent syntheses of a hydroxylated indolizidine,3 carbohydrate substituted benzoquinones,4 and of the oxazole segment of calyculin5 have been accomplished using this chiral synthon.
