Abstract: | trans-Stereoselective electrophilic cyclization of (2R*,SS*)-N, N-diisopropyl-2-phenylsulfinylpent-4-enamide under the action of bromine afforded (3R*,5S*, SS*)-N-(5-bromomethyl-3-phenylsulfinyltetrahydrofuran-2-ylidene)-N,N-diisopropylammonium bromide. Its transformations under the conditions of hydrolysis, dehydrobromination, and hydride reduction
were studied.
Dedicated to Academician V. A. Tartakovsky on the occasion of his 75th birthday.
