developed for the efficient synthesis of benzylidene acetal from aldehyde at room temperature. In this metal‐free method, Cl3CCN serves as a water scavenger as well as reaction medium and the acid catalyst is readily recovered and recycled. At room temperature, a wide variety of aryl and α,β‐unsaturated aldehydes react readily with functionalized diols and opticallyactive diols to furnish the corresponding

The synthesis of 1-deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) derivatives is described from D-glucono-delta-lactone. The DNJ derivatives were obtained via a sequence that included a stereoselective intramolecular Huisgen reaction, decomposition to an aziridine, and its subsequent reaction with a nucleophile. Minimization of allylic strain in the transition state accounts for the stereoselectivity of the cycloaddition reaction.
