A partially protected C-5{double bond, long}C-5a unsaturated carbasugar with α-lyxo configuration is synthesised in five steps and 26% overall yield from a known mannose-derived hemiacetal, using ring-closing metathesis as a key step. This carbasugar is c

Cyclic sulfite 10, readily available from (-)-quinic acid (3) in 10 steps, was ring opened regio- and stereospecifically with azide anion to give (1S,2R,3R,4R)-1-azido-3,4-di-O-benzyl-5-(benzyloxymethyl)cyclohex-5-ene- 2,3,4-triol (11). Deprotection of 11 afforded, for the first time, 2- epivalienamine (2), which was isolated as penta-N,O-acetyl-2-epi-valienamine (14). The configuration of the free hydroxy group in 11 was inverted by a two-step sequence to give the blocked valienamine 19 that was deprotected to give valienamine (1), isolated as penta-N,O-acetylvalienamine (21). This approach furnished (+)-valienamine (1) in 16 steps (7% overall yield) and recorded the first synthesis of 2-epi-valienamine (2) in 13 steps (11% overall yield).
