Abstract
Diastereoselective hydroxymethylation of a suitably protected α -D-manno-hexodialdo-1, 5-pyranoside with the Grignard reagent derived from (phenyldimethylsilyl)methyl chloride gives, after additional protecting group manipulations, an easy access to one donor and two acceptors of LD-Hepp. The latter derivatives could be applied successfully for the preparation of the disaccharides α -D-GlcpN-(l-7)-L-α-D-Hepp-OMe and L-α-D-Hepp-(l-6)-L-α-D-Hepp-OMe.
