Abstract

The reaction of (phenyldimethyl)silylmethylmagnesium chloride with benzyl 2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-α-D-manno-hexodialdo-1,5-pyranoside affords the corresponding L-glycero-D-manno-addition product having at C-7 the phenyldimethylsilyl (PDMSi) group. The latter silanyl compound survived benzylation as well as glycosylation at OH-6, and the PDMSi group could be unmasked with overall retention of configuration to give a free hydroxyl.
