- stereoselectivity of the cyclocondensation step is best explained by the attack on a re-face of the C=O group due to chelation of Zn2+ to the carbonyl oxygen and amide nitrogen/oxygen atoms [49]. A better approach in terms of carbon atom economy relied on the addition of allylmagnesium chloride to the aldehyde (R
- (Scheme 13) [63]. The other strategy which also commences from L-malic acid [64] showed much better carbon atom economy since the acetate (S)-55 was reacted with cyanide while to the acetate (S)-52 three unused carbon atoms were added. The cyanides (4S,5S)-56 and (4S,5R)-56 formed as a 57:43 mixture in a

In terms of carbon atom economy syntheses using 5-carbon synthons, e.g., pyroglutamic acid derivatives or pentoses, are the most valuable. From pyroglutamic
