Th. Altel et W. Voelter, EFFICIENT ACCESS TO POLYFUNCTIONALIZED AND POLYCYCLIC FURANOIDS - CONTROL OF THE OFF-TEMPLATE CENTER VIA ACID CATALYSIS, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (2), 1995, pp. 239-240
A mild and economic strategy for the synthesis of chiral and polyfunct
ionalized furanoids on carbohydrate templates is described; also a new
methodology for the control of the substituents on the satellite ring
through acid catalysis is achieved.
