SYNTHESIS OF L-IDURONIC ACID DERIVATIVES BY EPIMERISATION OF ANANCOMERIC D-GLUCURONIC ACID ANALOGUES

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0008-6215(00)81890-X

Derivatives of L-iduronic acid were prepared by epimerisation of D-glucuronic acid derivatives that were constrained to adopt a conformation having C-6 in an axial position, so that the L-iduronic acid derivatives would be thermodynamically more stable.Me
