Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The selectivity of benzylation of the primary hydroxyl group in the presence of sodium isopropoxide is greater than in the presence of the hydride.

  2. 2.

    The selectivity of the benzylation of the primary hydroxyl group by benzyl trichloroacetimidate is low.

  3. 3.

    Benzylation of the thallium alkoxide of benzyl-2-acetamido-2-desoxy-α-D-glucapyranoside proceeds readily and selectively in the 6-position.
