M. Toth et L. Somsak, exo-Glycals from glycosyl cyanides. First generation of C-glycosylmethylene carbenes from 2,5-and 2,6-anhydroaldose tosylhydrazones, J CHEM S P1, (9), 2001, pp. 942-943
In a one-pot reaction acylated glycosyl cyanides were transformed with Rane
y nickel-sodium hypophosphite into 2,5- and 2,6-anhydroaldose tosylhydrazon
es, which gave exo-glycals under Bamford-Stevens conditions.
