Structures were fully optimized through step by step calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory and then single point calculations were performed at MP2/6-31G(d) level. All transition structures were found to have only one negative eigenvalue with the corresponding eigenvector involving the formation of the newly created C-C and C-O bonds. Vibrational frequencies were calculated (1 atm, 298.15 K) for all B3LYP/6-31G(d) optimized structures and used unscaled, to compute ZPVE and activation energies. All calculations were performed using the Gaussian 03 revision B.01 suite of programs.

50. Interestingly, the (5S)-configuration of the major adducts is opposite to that found by Vasella (see Ref. 16) for the cycloaddition between N-ribosyl-C-(alkoxymethyl) nitrones and methyl methacrylate, thus pointing out the influence in the diastereofacial selectivity of the reaction not only of the chiral auxiliary but also of the dipolarophile's nature.
51. Attempts of deprotecting the N-benzyl group included hydrogenation under mild conditions and reduction with Na and Li in liquid ammonia. A less common method, such as Montmorillonite K-10, which had successfully been used by us with other N-benzyl isoxazolidinyl nucleosides (see Ref. 8c) was also tested. In all cases complex reaction mixtures were obtained.
52. Furthermore, the use of different N-glycosyl units, such as mannosyl, gulosyl, or erythrosyl derivatives, which are available in both enantiomeric forms, could provide access to both enantiomeric series.
