APPLICATION OF ORTHO ESTERIFICATION UNDER KINETICALLY CONTROLLED CONDITIONS TO ME SELECTIVE ACYLATION IN THE D-GLUCO-FURANOSE, D-RIBO-FURANOSE AND D-XYLO-FURANOSE SERIES

The ortho esterification of various glucofuranoses in the D-ribo, D-xy
lo and D-gluco series under kinetic control was obtained through the a
ction of 1,1-dimethoxyethene (a ketene acetal) on the monosaccharide u
sing mild acid conditions. The selective hydrolysis of the methoxyethy
lidene derivatives thus obtained, gave access to alpha-hydroxy acetate
s which are useful synthetic intermediates.
