Many bacterial pathogens utilize the 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate pathway for biosynthesizing isoprenoid precursors, a pathway that is vital for bacterial survival and absent from human cells, providing a potential source of drug targets. However,

Enantiomerically pure 2-C-methyl-d-erythritol 4-phosphate 1 (MEP) is synthesized from 1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-d-xylofuranose via facile benzylation in good yield. Subsequently, 1 is used for enzymatic synthesis of 4-diphosphocytidyl-2-C-methyl-d-erythritol

Optically pure 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate, a key intermediate in the mevalonate-independent route for isoprenoid biosynthesis, is conveniently synthesized from 1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-xylofuranose, including the possibility of radiolabeling of t
