The selectivity of the Sharpless dihydroxylation was determined by chiral SFC analysis of the corresponding epoxide 46 (CHIRALCEL OD-H, 100 bar, 5 mL.min−1, 5% MeOH). This result was in absolute accordance with the studies performed by Tietze et al. who demonstrated that the nature of the protecting group had a strong influence on the enantioselectivity of the dihydroxylation, see: TietzeLF, GörlitzerJ.
