Methyl 3-deoxy-alpha and beta-D-ribo, D-xylo and D-lyxo-hept-2-ulosoni
c acids were obtained from the individual alpha and beta anomers of th
e same methyl (methyl 3-deoxy-D-arabino-hept-2-ulopyranosid)-onate in
a sequential epimerisation at C-4 and/or C-5 of their appropriate O-tr
ifluoromethanesulfonic derivatives, using cesium acetate, Subsequent o
xidation of the 7-OH group in these compounds lead to the new isomeric
3-deoxy-hept-2-ulosaric acids derivatives. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science
