Abstract
Abstract A new route for the synthesis of 2,3- O -isopropylidene- L -erythrofuranose and L -erythrose starting from D -gulono-1,4-lactone is presented. The intermediate, 2,3- O -isopropylidene- D -gulono-1,4-lactone, was prepared in a very high yield from 2,3:5,6-di- O -isopropylidene- D -gulono-1,4-lactone. In addition, 1- O -benzoyl-2,3- O -isopropylidene-β- L -erythrofuranose and 2,3- O -isopropylidene-β- L -erythrofuranosyl chloride were prepared.
