SYNTHESIS OF (Z)-3,7-ANHYDRO-1,2-DIDEOXY-2-DEUTERIO-D-gluco-OCT-2-ENITOL, A PROCHIRAL SUBSTRATE FOR PROBING THE CATALYTIC FUNCTIONING OF GLUCOSYLASES

Synthesis of the title compound provides a prochiral, glycosyl-donor substrate well suited for use as a probe of the catalytic functioning of D-glucosyl-mobilizing enzymes, because the full stereochemistry of enzymic reactions at its double bond may be un
