Abstract
The 2-thio- or 2-selenoglycosides of N-acetylneuraminic acid methyl ester w
ere transformed by successive treatment with dimethyl(methylthio)sulfonium
triflate (DMTST) and 1,8-diazabicyclo [5.4.0]-7-undecene (DBU) to give the
corresponding methyl 2-deoxy-2,3-didehydroneuraminates in excellent yields.
Their acids and their analogues are sialidase inhibitors of pharmaceutical
interest.
