Versatile synthetic intermediates were formed by the dearomatization of 2‐aryl 4,5‐diphenyloxazolines with secondary alkyl lithium reagents in the presence of N , N ′‐dimethylpropyleneurea (DMPU; see scheme). The resulting cyclohexadiene derivatives were converted into carbocyclic analogues of mannose and altrose in a short sequence without the use of protecting groups.
