Studies relating to the synthesis of laurenenynes: Construction of the alkylidene side chain via [2,3]-Wittig-Still rearrangement at the anomeric center of a furanoside derivative

Article abstract of DOI:10.3987/COM-99-S31

The construction of the C₆ alkylidene side chain of laurenenynes has been investigated using the [2,3]-Wittig-Still rearrangement at the anomeric position of an appropriate glycofuranoside derivative, followed by further chemical transformation
