The 2,2-dimethyl-2-( ortho -nitrophenyl)acetyl (DMNPA) group permits, via robust neighboring group participation (NGP) or long distance participation (LDP) effects, the stereocontrolled 1,2- rans , 1,2- cis , as well as β-2,6-dideoxy glycosidic bond generation, while suppressing the undesired orthoester byproduct formation. The robust stereocontrol capability of the DMNPA is due to the dual-participation effect from both the ester functionality and the nitro group, verified by control reactions and DFT calculations and further corroborated by X-ray spectroscopy.
