Abstract

The 4,6-benzylidene acetal of methyl 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-α,β-D-glucopyranoside underwent inversion at C-3 via an oxidation-reduction sequence, and treatment of the derived 3-acetate with N-bromosuccinimide in carbon tetrachloride gave methyl 3-O-acetyl-4-O-benzoyl-6-bromo-2,6-dideoxy-2-fluoro-α-D-allopyranoside (6). Dehydrobromination of 6 and reduction of the resultant 5,6-ene gave the 5-epimer of 6, which after removal of the ester substituents, afforded the title compound in good overall yield.
