The “naked” alkoxide 1 of ( S )‐6‐methyl‐δ‐lactol acts as an excellent chiral hydroxide equivalent in highly diastereoselective oxy‐Michael additions to nitroalkenes (see scheme). The excellent stereoinduction arises from what becomes a superb protecting group in the resulting 1,2‐amino alcohol products. R 1 =alkyl, aryl, furanyl, thiophenyl; R 2 ,R 3 =(CH 2 ) 3 CHCH 3 O.
