Unexpected products in the LiA1H4/AlCl3-reduction of 3-O-substituted and N-benzyloxycarbonyl-protected 4,6-O-[2-methoxybenzylidene]-α-D-glucosamine derivatives

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/07328309708006541

The reductive cleavage of benzyl 2-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-deoxy-4,6-O-(2-methoxybenzylidene)-α-D- glucopyranoside 2 with LiA1H₄-AlCl₃ gave the corresponding 4-O-(2-methoxybenzyl) ether along with the 6-O-ether as expected. When, ho
