Jm. Vegaperez et al., OXAZOLIDINES FROM SUGARS .3. A NEW METHOD FOR N-ALKYL AND N,N-DIALKYL-D-GLUCOSAMINE DERIVATIVES, Journal of carbohydrate chemistry, 12(4-5), 1993, pp. 477-486
Title compounds can be synthesised by an easy two-step method from the
readily available benzyl amino-4,6-O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-D-glucopyran
osides (1-5), by nucleophilic cleavage of the oxazolidine ring previou
sly formed between the positions 2 and 3 of the aminosugars.
