Synthesis and intramolecular nitrile oxide cycloaddition of 3,5′-ether-linked pseudooligosaccharide derivatives: An approach to chiral macrooxacycles

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jo050689w

3,5′-Ether-linked pseudooligopentose derivatives were synthesized for the first time from readily available carbohydrate precursors. The 1,2-isopropylidene-protected ether-linked oligopentoses are potentially important as precursors of novel RNA analogues
