D. Colombo et al., SYNTHESIS OF METHYL ALPHA-D-ALLOPYRANOSIDE AND METHYL ALPHA-D-RIBO-HEXOPYRANOSIDE - A CONVENIENT CHEMOENZYMATIC APPROACH, Journal of carbohydrate chemistry, 13(4), 1994, pp. 611-617
An efficient chemoenzymatic synthesis of methyl alpha-D-allopyranoside
and methyl 3-deoxy-alpha-D-ribo-hexopyranoside starting from methyl 4
,6-O-benzylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranoside is described.
