Grignard reagents add diastereo- and regioselectively to the γ-position of N-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-pivaloyl-β-d-galactopyranosyl)-1,2-dihydro-pyridin-2-one in situ, when activated by trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate yielding enantiomerically pure 4-substituted N-galactosyl-5,6-didehydro-2-piperidinones.
