• )-configuration. Excellent diastereoselectivities were also achieved in the indium-mediated allylation of chiral tert-butanesulfinyl glyoxylate imine derivatives 87 with ethyl 2-bromomethylacrylate (88). Working at room temperature without any additional solvent provided the highest yields in these coupling

The indium-mediated allylation strategy again revealed to be a useful tool for the preparation of two-carbon chain elongated carbohydrates. Two new stereocenters were formed with high diastereoselectivity in the course of the synthesis owing to
