ABSTRACT
A powerful, flexible, and stereoselective general strategy for the construction of chirally pure six-membered carbocycles from easily available vinyl nitro-modified hexofuranosides is described. By using a Michael addition reaction followed by ring opening and ring closure, densely functionalized carbasugars decorated with multiple chiral centers are obtained in good overall yields.
