Abstract

Generation of the Reformatsky reagent of difluoracetate from the iodide (2) and the difluoroketene silyl acetal (3), and their aldol reaction are described. High anti-selectivity with chiral aldehyde (5d, 5f) was found in the case of the ketene silyl acetal (3b). 2,2-Difluoro-2-deoxy analogs of D-ribo- and L-galactopyranosides (1a, 1b) were effectively prepared.
