| pubmed-article:12688809 | pubmed:abstractText | The enantioselective synthesis of bicyclic sulfonium salts 8 or 9, thioanalogues of swainsonine derivatives, is described. The synthetic strategy is based on a stereo- and regiospecific transannular cyclization reaction of nine-membered cyclic sulfides, mediated by Me(3)SiI or carried out under acidic catalysis. | lld:pubmed |
