30. With a cycloadduct substituted by a gem dimethyl group at C2, the diastereomer corresponding to compound 22b is the only product of the reaction. This result is also in agreement with a conformational restriction of the side chain due to hydrogen bonding in the iminium intermediate and a diastereoselective attack of hydride at the Re face of this iminium (unpublished work).
