The preparation of optically active 1,2-diols bearing a substituent with a benzyloxy group at the terminus has been achieved by microbial enantioselective oxidation of the racemic compounds. In the screening test, Ochrobactrum sp. MU2293 was selected as the best strain to perform the enantioselective oxidation of (±)-4-benzyloxybutane-1,2-diol to give the corresponding 4-benzyloxy-1-hydroxybutan-2-one and the remaining (R)-diol with a high ee. This microbial oxidation was applicable to other substrates bearing a substituent with a different carbon number. On the other hand, Bacillus sp. MU2289 catalyzed the oxidation of the 1,2-diols to afford the corresponding α-hydroxy ketones and the (S)-diols as the remaining substrates with the opposite absolute configuration.

A concise total synthesis of the very promising antiproliferative macrolide (+)-neopeltolide (1) has been performed In 16 steps. The main steps of this approach are a RuII-catalyzed alkyne-enal coupling, a Pd 0-catalyzed desulfurativ
Synthesis and application of α-D-mannosyl clusters as photoaffinity ligands for mannose-binding proteins: Concanavalin A as a model receptor

Mono-, di-, and tri-antennary α-D-mannopyranosyl derivatives were synthesized as oligosaccharide mimics. The compounds vary in the length of the acyclic aglyconic spacers linking, in the case of the di- and tri-antennary derivatives, the glycosyl endgroup
