A. Defoin et al., A STRAIGHTFORWARD SYNTHESIS OF (+ -) 5-AMINO-5,6-DIDEOXYALLOSE, OF ITS BISULFITE BETA-ANOMER, AND OF ITS 1-DEOXY DERIVATIVE/, Tetrahedron letters, 34(27), 1993, pp. 4327-4330
Diels-Alder cycloaddition of (E,E)-hexadienal dimethylacetal 3 with th
e benzyloxycarbonylnitroso dienophile 4, followed by catalytic osmylat
ion, hydrogenolysis, and treatment with SO2, led stereospecifically to
the sole beta-anomer of allopiperidinose bisulfite derivative 7. Sapo
nification of 7 and thence catalytic hydrogenation gave in high yield
the 1-deoxyallopiperidine derivative 9.
