3,4-TRI-O-ACETYL-1,6-ANHYDRO-BETA-D-MANNOPYRANOSE, AN ARTIFACT PRODUCED DURING CARBOHYDRATE ANALYSIS - A TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF ,3,5-TRI-O-ACETYL-1,6-ANHYDRO-BETA-D-MANNOFURANOSE
S. Manna et al., 3,4-TRI-O-ACETYL-1,6-ANHYDRO-BETA-D-MANNOPYRANOSE, AN ARTIFACT PRODUCED DURING CARBOHYDRATE ANALYSIS - A TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF ,3,5-TRI-O-ACETYL-1,6-ANHYDRO-BETA-D-MANNOFURANOSE, Carbohydrate research, 243(1), 1993, pp. 11-27
This study confirms that ,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-1,6-anhydro-beta-D-mannopyr
anose is an artifact produced during carbohydrate analysis. A new synt
hesis of ,3,5-tri-O-acetyl-1,6-anhydro-beta-D-mannofuranose is also de
scribed, and a novel dimer, 5'-di-O-(1-methoxyethyl)-di-alpha-D-mannof
uranose, has been isolated. The structure of the dimer is confirmed by
X-ray analysis of a derivative, ',3'-di-O-isopropylidene-di-alpha-D-m
annofuranose.
