Abstract

Opening of the 1,6-anhydro bridge in levoglucosenone by the action of acetic anhydride in the presence of ZnCl2 afforded diastereoisomeric 1,6-di-O-acetyl-3,4-dideoxy-α/β-D-glycero-hex-3-enopyranos-2-uloses, and alcoholysis of the resulting diacetates in methanol, ethanol, and propan-2-ol in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid, camphor-10-sulfonic acid, ZnCl2, and HCl was studied. Their methanolysis in the presence of CSA gave methyl 3,4-dideoxy-α/β-D-glycero-hex-3-enopyranosid-2-uloses that are precursors to purpurosamine C and (+)-frontalin.
