A norbornyl route to cyclohexitols: structural diversity in fragmentation through functional group switching. Synthesis of alpha- and beta-galactose,alpha-talose and alpha-fucopyranose carbasugars
G. Mehta et al., A norbornyl route to cyclohexitols: structural diversity in fragmentation through functional group switching. Synthesis of alpha- and beta-galactose,alpha-talose and alpha-fucopyranose carbasugars, TETRAHEDR L, 41(18), 2000, pp. 3505-3508
A novel fragmentation sequence has been executed within the norbornane syst
em, involving C-1-C-7 bond scission, to extract a versatile, highly functio
nalized cyclohexanoid moiety. Its further evolution towards a range of carb
asugars is described. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
