A synthetic pathway producing the title compound starting from methyl α-D-glucose is described. This compound was shown to be a substrate for DesVI, an AdoMet-dependent methyltransferase which catalyzes N,N-dimethylation of the title compound to give a biological significant unusual sugar, desosamine.
