yn-1-ol (8).—NaH (50% dispersion in mineral
oil, 4 mg, 0.08 mmol) was added to a stirred
solution of 7 (0.05 g, 0.055 mmol) in THF (2
mL) at 0 °C. After 15 min, a solution of
propargyl bromide (0.014 g, 0.11 mmol) in
THF (1 mL) was added. The reaction mixture
was stirred at ambient temperature for 24 h. It
was then diluted with CH2Cl2 (5 mL) and
washed with water, and the organic layer was
dried over Na2SO4. Evaporation of solvent
under reduced pressure, followed by prepara-
tive TLC on silica gel (60:40 EtOAc–
petroleum ether), gave 8 (0.038 g, 75%): mp
65–66 °C; [h]2D0 −20.7° (c 1.2, CHCl3). IR:

glucofuran-3-oxycarbonylethenyl)phenyl] meth-
ane (12).—Pd(OAc)2 (1.0 mg, 0.004 mmol)
was added to a degassed solution of tetra(4-
iodophenyl)methane (11) (0.012 g, 0.014
mmol), the sugar acrylate 10 (0.028 g, 0.087
mmol), KOAc (0.014 g, 0.145 mmol) and
Bu4NBr (0.02 g, 0.058 mmol) in DMF (3 mL).
The reaction mixture was heated at 80 °C for
12 h. It was then concentrated under reduced
pressure, diluted with water, and extracted
with CH2Cl2 (3×5 mL). The organic layer
was dried over Na2SO4, and the solvent was
evaporated under reduced pressure. The
