A practical synthetic strategy has been developed for producing uncommon sugars. This method employed kinetic enzymatic resolution of 1-(2-furyl)ethanol, and followed by NBS-mediated Achmatowicz rearrangement to construct α,β-unsaturated lactones. After further derivatization, five representative uncommon sugar units were successfully synthesized. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

[formula: see text] Grubbs' RuCl2 (=CHPh)(PCy3)2 (catalyst 1) and RuCl2(=CHPh)(PCy3)(IMess) (catalyst 2) complexes have been successfully utilized in the construction of beta,gamma-unsaturated delta-lactones containing various substitution patterns of methyl groups. Asymmetric dihydroxylation followed by reduction leads to 3,4-cis-dihydroxy-2,6-dideoxypyranoses, which have proven to play very important biological roles as key components of natural products.
