Abstract
Methyl (methyl α-D-mannopyranosid)uronate (I) has been obtained by the catalytic oxidation of methyl α-D-mannopyranoside with oxygen in the presence of platinum carbon with a yield of 20%. The partial methylation of (I) and preparative column chromatography on silica gel has provided a convenient method of obtaining all the methyl ethers of (I) in the individual state.
