Abstract

Various aryl 6-deoxy-5-keto-ß-D-arabino-hexofuranosides, including one (42) corresponding to the sugar-cinnamate unit of Hygromycin A (1) have been synthesized by a method in which 6-deoxy-ß-D-glucofuranosides are first prepared, followed by configurational inversion at positions 2 and 3 via 2,3-anhydro-6-deoxy-ß-D-mannofuranosyl intermediates.
