Rw. Armstrong et Dp. Sutherlin, STRATEGIES FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF C-DISACCHARIDES CONTAINING D-SUGAR AND L-SUGAR, Tetrahedron letters, 35(42), 1994, pp. 7743-7746
The osmylation of C-1 homologated diene ester monosaccharides readily
affords C-disaccharides of diverse but predictable stereochemistry. As
an example, D-glu-alpha(1,6)-D-gal (3), D-glu-alpha(1,6)-L-gal (4), D
-glu-alpha(1,6)-D-ido (10), and D-glu-alpha(1,6)-L-ido (11) were synth
esized from a single precursor.
