Em. Carreira et al., THE APPLICATION OF NITRIDO MANGANESE REAGENTS TO THE SYNTHESIS OF PROTECTED N-METHYL D-FUCOSAMINE, Pure and applied chemistry, 70(5), 1998, pp. 1097-1103
A synthesis of protected D-fucosamine and N-methyl fucosamine from D-g
alactose is described. The synthesis is carried out in ten steps and i
ncludes the amination reaction of D-fucal with an easily prepared Mn=N
reagent.
