Abstract
Hexopyranoside diols, mainly 4,6-diols with alpha-gluco, beta-gluco, a lpha-galacto, beta-galacto, and alpha-manno configurations could be co nverted effectively (40 - 74% yields), to the corresponding pyruvate a cetals by the coupling of the O-trialkylsilylated, namely, O-TBDMS and /or O-TMS diols, and ethyl pyruvate in the presence of TMSOTf at tempe ratures between -30 degrees C and +3 degrees C. In the case of the bet a-manno isomer, the anomerization of the beta-glycoside to the alpha-g lycoside as well as the ring contraction of the pyranoside to the fura noside predominated.
