18. Sarakinos, G.; Corey, E. J. Org. Lett. 1999, 1, 1741. Because the product analysis was one of diastereomers, we worked with racemic 8a and 8b.
19. Sarakinos and Corey (ref 11) had reported that the Lewis acid-catalyzed Diels Alder reactions of acrylates of the β-hydroxy sulfones were more stereoselective than those of the corresponding sulfides, noting that sulfide complexation might be involved. One might expect this result also on the basis of the buttressing effect of the sulfone oxygens.
