Abstract
glucitol (1) seems to be a good model to investigate the influence of aglycon in esterification and etherification of the glycosides. Our previous publications reported reexaminations of partial tosylation3) and benzoyla tion4) of 1. As an extension of the studies, this com munication describes partial mesylation and methyla tion of 1. Reaction of 1 with one molar equivalent of mesyl chloride in pyridine at -40•Ž gave 1, 5-anhydro-4, 6-O-benzylidene-2-O-mesyl-D-glucitol (3) in 53%
